New slip yolk?

[DBUSHLB7]

As I'm awaiting the return of my trans, I thought now would be a good time to address a leaky output shaft seal. The seal has been replaced and that did not fix it. I will this time once again replace the seal as well as the slip yolk this time. While I got a 87 dollar discount on the vin matched slip yolk at the local dealer, I couldn't turn down a new 75 dollar spicer yolk elsewhere. Can anyone chip in on wether or not this Spicer unit will work fine. Same spline count, same diameters. The new spicer has a rib at the back where the diameter gets a little bigger. The seal sits in front of where that raised part is on the new yolk so didnt think it would matter. The casting numbers match. Again minor differences, just not sure if these differences will cause problems. The dealer yolk was 217 the spicer was 75 lol.

I think it may be the correct one. MA spicer offering also has that raised portion.

if you look at where the seal ride Damian, its not on that part. the dust shield might be the only thing to touch it

the spicer one look hella beefy from the side shot with more meat on the ujoint area, the raised lip might have been a later adition to add strength maybe? either way it looks better in every way over the OEM one

Agreed. Of course like I said... The ODs are the same so not necessarily more material though and they are both spicer. Either way after comparing the two there is no doubt it needed replacing

Lol it shipped out today from Denver. Freight is one day from there to where I live so it will be here tomorrow. They said the C3s were spotted as well as the C4s but insisted it all looked like normal wear and evident of a lot of miles. Oh well they said every clutch was new and I got a new converter
