55.2-59 worn yoke - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**popeyestruck** · 08-03-2022, 09:23 AM

Getting ready to pull the motor and trans for rebuild and found this wear spot when I dropped the driveline. When I drained the transmission there was maybe 8 oz of fluid might have been ATF. It was wet around the yoke. Wear doesnt go all the way around mostly just that flat spot .Would you run this or replace? Could use a source to replace. Thanks

I'd definitely be replacing that. What transmission are you running?

Stock transmission

Positively replace it. I'd also replace the extension housing bushing as it is no doubt pretty well worn out.

I'm going to go through the transmission and replace whats worn when I pull it. Do you have a source for the yoke?

It should be a pretty standard item.
