I found an original 1957 Ford rear end in a utility trailer that I am using for my coupe build. The center section has 3.56 open gears that I was going to run for now, but the pinion yoke is not all there. From my research I've found that this yoke has the part# B8A-4851-B and uses threaded end caps not U bolts. I've tried several times to replace the yoke with a 1310 style yoke so that I can get a driveshaft built, but the 3 yokes I've tried do not fit correctly on the pinion shaft. So, I either need to find these threaded end caps to use on the yoke I have or change out the ring and pinion (I guess) so I can use a 1310 style yoke and universal joint. Anyone have any other ideas or suggestions??
