4sd to 727
guys I need alittle help
I think I found a big block 727 short shaft W/ yoke for my 69' powerwagon that came out of a 79' motor home.
The yoke is missing from the back of the 727 trany.
Will the yoke on the back of my 435 work on the 727? If not were do I find the correct yoke?
What else do I need other than a shifter, flex plate, and tourque converter?
Thanks

Re: 4sd to 727
You can still get the yokes from Spicer. I have a 71 Dodge w200 and I wanted to upgrade all my shafts, Altogether I spent like $1500 on driveshafts! However I found that Spicer has a bigger yoke that fits the 727, its a 1410 which is used on Dana 70/80s. I did that now I won't have to ever worry about breaking anything If you or anyone is interested in getting those yokes, better do so now because its listed on Spicer's slow movers list and after a year or so if they don't sell enough they will discontinue it.

Re: 4sd to 727
Your corret, I should learn to read the fine print.... If I did that I'd probably stop and ask directions.

Re: 4sd to 727
Really? Why?
I just got my 727 back from Jeff (oregondodgeboy) to slap behind my 440. The 4 spd was too much work. The nice thing about the motorhome was that it came with a deep, cooling tube pan. I am open to any and all suggestions for these trannys.

Re: 4sd to 727
Crusty - Are you asking me?
The Four speed was a terrible shifting thing, It was noisy, and most of all..... It made drinking my coffee on the way to work tuff . 80% of the driving I do is around town, shifting all the time. My 1st was not a granny and not sincronized. Never failed I was hitting stop lights wrong as hard as I tried.
My 3.54 and 33" tall tires just about force a compleat stop first gear restart. Second gear rolling start really lugged. It just shifted so poorly, even after the rebuild.
My wife will drive Sasquatch now, The first thing she noticed was the truck is smother and quiter.
If I was playng in the hills or on a farm I may not have ever changed it. My truck is just a pavement pounder.
I went with a mild shift kit,cooler, and a stock converter.
One more Item I learned, I couldn't find a doner truck with a automatic, I built my own and also tried several doner rigs for kick down linkage. I couldn't get anything to work with out hitting the fire wall. I finally found a Dart that had kick down linkage that pivots at the back of the engine block and then pivots under the floor. I don't know about small blocks but a big block just about has to have the pivot style kick down.
I have two fly wheels 1interanl balanced 1 external balanced, a good clutch and pressure plate if any one wants them?

Re: 4sd to 727
Yeah, I was asking you. Do you have pictures of the linkage/shifter setup? Also, please PM me about the ext balance flywheel. Maybe my 4 spd dream isn't over yet...

Re: 4sd to 727
Crusty - I'm not sure my PM to you went through.
My PM box was full.
Let me know.
You can have the fly wheel if you want it. I'll throw in the clutch and pressure plate if you want them also.

Re: 4sd to 727
I don't know if they come both ways or not.
I used a bolt on rear yoke. The factory 69' u joints were the same size as the yoke that was on the late 70's 727 I used.
