Product Description

By entering your model number, you can make sure that this fits.

Many different types of yokes, flanges, axles, and transfer cases are compatible. Used to keep the yoke in place while applying torque to the nut/pinion nut, as well as to set bearing pre-load. Perfect for loosening stubborn pinion nuts or applications requiring high torque, such as a crush sleeve that requires 250 ft. lbs.

Leverage can be obtained by using a 1/2" breaker bar or a 3/4" black pipe (both of which can be found at any hardware store).

Most sockets will fit in the hole, which is over 2" in diameter. To loosen or tighten the retaining nut, use a breaker bar and a torque wrench.

Use a grade 8 bolt with a shoulder for higher torque applications so the threads don't take the brunt of the load.

Questions & Answers

Is this going to work with the AAM 10?

I used it with my general manager - AAM 10. 5 (Bolt of 14). So, Yes.

I was able to remove the pinion nut. Is it possible to use this tool to remove cemented on the yoke? Is there some kind of white stuff stuck to the pinion gears?

Not by itself, but if you're handy enough to make a pulley puller underneath it, it might work. Another option is to hammer out the pinion gear while the carrier is out.

Is it true that this tool comes with the grade 8 bolts that are mentioned in the description? Or any bolt, for that matter?

No, bolts are not included because each yoke will require a different set of bolts. You can either reuse the bolts that came out of the yoke or, if your yoke uses U=bolts, find some bolts that will go all the way through with nuts on the back.

Is this compatible with the Dana 60 and 70? And what about np205?

It has a lot of different sized slotted holes, as you can see in the picture, so I'm guessing it'll work with pretty much anything.

Selected User Reviews For BleepinJeep Yoke Wrench Tool

I was under the impression that I was purchasing a brand new, unused tool, not one that had been returned by some jerk after only one use

3/5

Bleepin'Jeep, get a move on! This tool was only used once before being returned to the original buyer, who simply wanted their $45 back after completing their differential build. I got my hands on that guy's used tool, and guess what? It does not make me happy. I should get a BRAND NEW COMPLETELY UNUSED TOOL if I pay full price, either from Amazon or from your website (shipping is the same). This isn't even close to being cool. I do not care about the ballon and sticker patch that you included with this tool. I'm not the kind of jerk who throws things away after they've been used. Okay, that's the end of my rant. The tool has a nice, thick feel to it. It was used to set up a DANA 30 and, while it didn't fit on both sides of the upgraded Spicer yoke (Spicer 2-), it worked fine. I made do with the tool I was using (8091X) and seated the pinion bearing completely. When I was setting up an AMC 20, I wish I had known about this tool. The ability to use a 3/4" pipe on the end will ensure that any sleeve crush required receives the necessary torque. I gave it three stars because I was extremely disappointed that I paid for a BRAND NEW TOOL but did not receive it (see photos).

This is a tool that I would not recommend

3/5

There isn't much to say about this application. I was trying to install a crush sleeve on my jk rubicon front axle (dana 44) and it wouldn't stay in place. The first thing to go was the 12 drive socket hole. It had come to a complete stop. So I moved on to the cheater bar slot, which was completely bent out of shape. I ended up making my own tool out of 12 steel and materials costing around $12. That was something I should've done right away. I wish I could get my money back, but I'm past the time limit for returns.

Crush sleeves are not durable enough to be installed multiple times

3/5

New information on the review: After using this tool on only four axles, I have to say it isn't holding up as well as I'd hoped. br>br>2 star reduction for durability issuesbr>br>After using this tool on only four axles, I have to say it isn't holding up as well as I'd hoped. The 1/2" square that was used to hold work with a breaker bar has deformed and will round out completely with more use. Yes, I could weld a bar to the tool to solve the problem, but that would introduce a new issue. I wouldn't be able to rotate the pinion under the vehicle any longer. br>br>I would recommend a heat treatment or hardening process to increase the tool's durability for those of us who will use it frequently. Original review: br>br> br>br>Despite the fact that it was significantly more expensive than other versions and lacked a feature that others had (threaded block and push bolt to easily remove the pinion yoke), I bought it anyway because Matt is a nice guy and these are made in the United States. However, it would be nice to see him incorporate that functionality into this tool.

This is an excellent resource

5/5

When changing the drive shaft, this is a must! In my 2015 JKU Rubicon, I installed a Dana/Spicer 1310 Front Drive Shaft upgrade. The new drive shaft necessitates changing the flanges on the transfer case side (bolts to stock flanges on the axle side). Using this tool, I was able to achieve 160ft/lbs on the 1-ton truck. 1/4" yoke nut for the transfercase. (The axle flange does not need to be changed. ) ) Without this tool, I don't think you'll be able to torque that nut down. The tool was only attached to the TC yoke with two M8 45mm bolts, but it did the job. br>br>Even at 70 mph, there are no driveline vibrations. br>br>Many thanks to BleepinJeep!.

Will perfectly still any flanged shaft! Massive, hefty, rigid, tough, potent, and incredibly simple to use

5/5

This powerful tool will immobilize any shaft with a flange, allowing you to apply the torque required to complete the task. br>br>I was done in a matter of minutes because it worked so well. It was 25 degrees outside when I began the torturous activity, so this is a good thing. br>br>Buy this if you need to loosen or torque a flange.

Although this is a sturdy tool, some of the slots did not align well with my Dana44

4/5

I'm working on rebuilding a rusted Dana44 front axle. Some of the yoke straps on the pinion yoke are severely rusted, and some of the nuts are still attached. I struggled to get those rusted nuts through the slots on this yoke holder. br>br>Another issue I had was attempting to obtain the square-shaped object. a hole in the yoke holder to accommodate my 1/2" drive ratchet It's possible that I'll need to use a file to slightly open the square opening on the inside.

It was an excellent solution

5/5

I used it on a number eight. It was an 8 Ford that worked flawlessly. As previously stated, this is a nice thick tool, thicker than most others on the market, though I did notice some dimpling in the metal corners when using the 1/2" drive. (Note: I used a 24" breaker bar with a jack handle on the end and another jack handle on the end of my 1/2" ratchet to crush my crush sleeve, which resulted in a significant amount of force being applied. I would have been concerned if this had been a 1/4" plate, but it performed admirably. Although I did not use the 3/4" black pipe location, I intend to do so in the future. My application required a large enough hole for the socket. Overall, I would strongly advise others to try it because they will not be disappointed.

It's a bit pricey, but it's well worth it! Many times, tools can be improvised on the cheap and still do the job

5/5

I used to fiddle with longer bolts and random plates before discovering this tool, and it does the job so well that it cannot be overstated, plus it's small and easy to use! For yoke replacement, it would fit nicely in a trail tool kit. As I previously stated, it is more expensive than others I've seen, but it is well-built and performs admirably, and you are also supporting an enthusiast.
