8 3/4" pumpkin swap questions

So I wanted to update this post.
I finally completed the job yesterday afternoon.
It took so long because some hack must have thrown this rear together with misc. parts and the weather has been brutal the last several weeks, so I had very little enthusiasm to do anything in the garage after sweating all day at work.
So the challenges I faced doing this swap are as follows:
The pumpkin that was in the car was a 2.76:1 one legger. It had some strange yoke on it. It was a little wider than the u joints and had a small tit sticking up on both sides to retain the caps. But it had no room to put c clips on the caps. So , I had to find the c clips to put on the caps to retain the u joint in my correct yoke. I was getting ready to buy a u joint, just for the clips when I decided to look through some misc. stuff that is still stored at my parent's house. I found 2 clips that fit perfectly.
The u joint clamps that were on the 2.76 yoke did not fit the correct yoke. I finally found a pair of straps with the correct bolts.
I went to install the straps and bolts and they would not tighten down. I had to run a tap through the yoke to get the bolts to tighten up.
I was getting ready to throw the pass side axle in and I thought I should back the adjuster out a little. Well someone had failed to put the locking pawl on the adjuster. They instead decided to hammer the crap out of the adjuster to hold the adjustment in place. I had to pull the bearing, seal and adjuster off and replace with new stuff I had purchased several years back at a swap meet.
I drove the car yesterday and the change in gear ratio is nice. It takes off a lot quicker. I left a small hole shot when I left my driveway, just to test out the Suregrip!

The yoke with the "small tit sticking up on both sides" is a Spicer, your car has Detroit u-joints. Mixing parts might be a disaster in the making.

John,
Fortunately, nothing happened with the Spicer yoke. I am planning to change that yoke out on the 2.76, just in case I want to put it back in sometime.
