Got a stock 9" center that I tried to fit a strange engineering coupler, but it must be shorter than a standard yoke (mine never came with one) so it won't reach the bearings or maybe even the front seal. Do I need some sort of spacer or a different pinion support
Is there a guide how to set these up? Fancy having a go myself
-
I think you are going to need an aftermarket pinion support . You can get one from Jeg's or Summit pretty cheap . If you have a dial indicator and some patience you can do it yourself .
-
Any idea which pinion support as there are so many to choose from.
Already got the dial gauge
-
Does the couple have any part numbers so that we can determine exactly what application it is for?

Strange Engineering U3627 - Strange Driveshaft Couplers
Got it from summit

I finally got time to check the Strange catalog and that is the correct coupler for a 28 spline pinion. They have a range of pinion supports and bearing/spacer kits depending on how strong you need the final package to be.
www.strangeengineering.net Look around page 35-36 in the catalog.

Which would you recommend I do go for, a spacer or spend a little more and get a pinion support?
I suppose if I build it for more hp than I have now it will be sorted for later on

Oops, I think the spacer goes inside the pinion support. Looks like I'm buying a new pinion support
