When to upgrade c6 slip yokes?

Post  f100cleveland on Thu Feb 11, 2010 11:22 am

What slip yokes are most of you guys running that require a 1350 joint? I'm debating on whether or not I need to upgrade to a Strange cm yoke vs a cast Moser yoke.

The application will be a 850-900 hp small block truck with a c6/transbrake that weighs somewhere around 3300-3400.

That Moser yoke is a forging, and I'd guess that it is mighty strong.

I have been running a Spicer yoke, similar HP with no brake, but almost 4200 lbs. Absolutely zero trouble.

I'll be watching this topic, though, because I was wondering when to upgrade yokes as well.

at about 900-1000 ft/tq the cast ones the spline in the yoke starts to twist and MW is the only one I've found that makes a billet yoke that will take my torque. I'll got 4 moser and strange that I twisted !

Thanks for the advice Frank.

Who has the best price or where is the best source to get a hardened input shaft?
