What was the part number for that yoke? I am pulling the trans in mine soon, so I will have the shaft out anyway.
Hello Guest, welcome to the initial stages of our new platform!

Thank you for being a part of our community!
F6ZZ4841BA for the yoke and I needed a Neapco 1-0134 U joint.
I didnt pay $180 for mine either it was cheaper at Shaftmasters in Detroit but I think I grabbed there last one.

What’s the approx diameter of the 4-cyl damper?
Also with the tail of your transmission as low as it is, did you have any issues with firewall clearance at the back of the cylinder head?
A T5 swap in a 240 really only needs a Foxbody Mustang driveshaft + Yoshifab adapter.

The 2.3L Ranger damper (F6ZZ4841BA) apparently is the cure for the T5 rattles, but is a tight fit in a 240 tunnel.
What's the diameter of that thing anyway? at this point it looks like the clearance may not be that different from the V6 one due to the fact that the bulk of that damper is ahead of the u-joint.
Looks like a 1350 on the yoke, vs 1310 on the driveshaft as well? That part number for the joint is for a bastard joint I'm guessing?
That does give me something to keep an eye out for.
Cool, thanks Tyler.
How'd it fit in the 140 tunnel? Granted mine's basically a 240 tunnel, but still, kinda curious.
My counter shaft was loose on my brand new T5 so they do appear to assemble them loose from the factory. I tried Paul's counter shaft retainer and peelable shims so I was able to set the preload correctly but I can't say it made any noticeable difference.t5 counter gear upgrade might be alright: https://www.5speeds.com/t5.htm
I had a poly mount in t5... maybe we need a something else there...
I have one installed. It helped noticeably.
