83' Ranger Broken Yoke

Hey, My nephew has an 83' v6 4x4 ranger. He broke the driveshaft yoke for the rear driveshaft that goes into the trans. None of the jyards around here have one. I found one on JCwhitney but it lists a centering yoke or an h yoke. What's the difference? Are there any other years he can snag this from? JCwhitney is the only place i've found that says they have or can get it.

thanks

There's only 1 shop like that around here and they said they can't get it. I'll check Denny's Driveshaft though. What is the difference between an
h yoke and a centering yoke?
thanks

It is a 5sp manual, regular cab. I count 26 splines on the yoke if that matters.
thanks

Sorta.

I've been a car/truck collector since 1956, was a Ford partsman for 35 years (1962/97). I may be retired, but...

I have over 600 Ford Passenger Car & Truck Parts Catalogs, O-S-I (Obsolete-Supercede-Interchange) and Master Cross Reference and Standard Parts (hardware) Catalogs on microfiche, CD's and bound and loose leaf paper that cover 1928/2002.

Access to the in-house Ford Dealer Parts Locator System, and to the system the obsolete parts vendors use.

I have a crystal ball I sometimes have to use in conjunction with the above, cuz some ppl when asking questions, forget to type one shred of evidence of what the hell they are a workin' on!
