Jorb, do you have detailed bushing dimensions for a 1937 1/2 ton? I can't find a new oakie and have found some nos bushings on line. Do you know the OEM part numbers I should be looking for for the forward yoke bushing, the first, or front driveshaft bushing and the seal just behind that bushing? If anyone has info on part numbers and where to get them I sure would appreciate it.

1.720Now number 9
Rear Bushing, I.D. is
1.032, O.D. is
1.680It is interesting that the inside dimensions of the front and rear bushing are different.
Another words the outside dimension of the rear U-Joint yoke, does not match the (smaller) outside dimension of the propeller shaft.
No harm in that, that is just the way GM engineered it .
