American Made Dana 20 Yoke

[WheelHorse]

Are there any American made Dana 20 yokes made that an enthusiast can purchase new?

Tom's has one for 40 bucks

Spicer Style Yoke

Then there is double the price for a Neapco for double the price?

I'm just curious if both of these are Chinese castings.

Bronco graveyard has a lot of OEM spicer parts

Advance Adapters makes a billet yoke, which I thought we sold separately but do not see listed on our site. At least I think they do. Maybe it only fits the Atlas?
If so, I can't say for sure that theirs is USA made, but since they have a very large machining capability to do this kind of stuff in-house, it's a decent bet that they are made there.

Might be worth a quick phone call.

Paul,

Maybe this one?

Of course this is concerning "This part doesn't quite fit a D20 10 spline rear output out of the box. The dust shield is not made quite the same as the original output yoke dust shield for the D20 rear output. The new shield has a half step that doesn't allow you to fully tighten the yoke bolt, and the shield actually bottoms out on the back face of the D20 where the seal is pressed in. You can carefully pop the shield off and run it that way or supposedly your original D20 rear output yoke shield will fit this 1310 yoke (have not tried that). Otherwise - looks to be a good yoke - just an issue with the dust shield"

Good find. Wasn't the one I was thinking, but it looks like it would work. Do they say it's made in the USA, or made by them, or for them?
I can't tell for sure by looking at it, but it looks more cast/forged than machined out of billet (and seems to be reflected in it's reasonable price) so is very possibly made for them by someone.

Losing the dust shield is not a deal-breaker, especially if it's a higher strength version of the yoke. But I also happen to like keeping the shields intact if possible.
Be very nice then if the stock one can be fitted to the new yoke, even if it takes a small amount of tweaking.
