Jey is not using a "CV Joint" like what the stock ranger has right?

If I had the piece that bolts to the other half of the Double Cardon Ujoint and it didnt match up to my Tcase that is no problem i would just make my own adapter.

I wish i was close to home so i could get some pics to help explain.
yea sorry I wasnt thinking and was calling his double Cardon a CV. yes the adapter mates his Double Cardon Dshaft to the CV style flange.

so do you know where he got that other half of the double cardon?

my current driveshaft would bolt right up to the picture i posted a of the tcase.

so if that makes sense i need part of that outputshaft but to go to a basic flange. if i had that then i can make the adapter.

I think the front out put is just like the rear output. So i think theres a nut that holds that front yoke on, but im not completely sure. I dont even know what size the front yoke is. Which is going to be wierd since I have a 1350 Yoke on my axle, and prolly a 1310 or 1330 on the tcase.

that piece will bolt up to your t-case beard......there is a bolt in the center that holds it on...same as yours......just unbolt 1 and bolt on the other.....

on my axle both Ujounts on each end appear to be the same.

well after some searching

this is what the end of my driveshaft looks like. and the other pic is kinda what i need, then i could make some type of flange to hold that piece.

here is how my 1354 is put together.....i am pretty sure that the only difference in your 1354 is the output flange.....which is held on by a bolt...

just pop the case apart and switch out those shafts.......or find a '97 Ranger 4x4 with an electric transfer case and swap them out........or if you could find a manual case from a '97 and older 1354.....or even the manual 1350 is a direct bolt up...

manual 1350's have slip shafts though, not a Solid output

the one that will connect to the transfer case. i might stop by the dealer and see how much a new output shaft would cost.
