Was working on the Bronco on Tuesday. It is up in the air on the lift and I have been greasing it, checking it over, etc. While looking at the transfer case, I noticed what appeared to be a crack in one flange of the front output yoke. So, I pulled the front drive shaft and checked it out. I poked at the crack with a pick, and the pick went right through the yoke!!! The yoke has almost no material in that area- almost surprised it isn't translucent in the day light...
So, I drained the transfer case and threw another yoke in. While looking at the front drive shaft, it didn't telescope very well. I have another front DS that is now at Universal Service here in Charlotte, getting rebuilt and prepped for the next race.
