All right, here is my situation...I have a Mod Motor w/ a T45 and a 8.8" Lincoln rear end. I will be using an aluminum driveshaft from a crown vic or an aerostar, or whatever else I find thats the most convienent. Now the rear end does not have a driveshaft yoke...its got kind of a circular plate with holes if you know what I am talking about...the T45 I dont yet have a yoke for, but will be picking one up soon...so I am trying to match this "plate" on one side(which I am betting is the same setup crown vics use) to a more conventional yoke on the other and am wondering how I will need to go about taking the correct measurement. I know I can convert the rear end to a conventional yoke as well, but if there is no advantage to doing so I dont see why I should(just adds extra cost) is there any advantage?
