However, the Explorer axle utilizes a large circular companion flange at the pinion, whereas factory Jeep driveshafts rely on a standard 1310 universal joint setup. This specialty conversion flange yoke matches the exact rectangular\/circular bolt pattern of the Ford 8.8 pinion flange while providing the precise width and snap-ring clearances needed to press in a standard Jeep 1310 u-joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003eThis original equipment manufacturer (OEM) conversion component guarantees precise radial runout tolerances, balancing properties, and high-strength forge geometry.
