Ok I almost have this thing back together but I have a couple questions.

1.  How do I adjust the rear axles with the adjuster on the passenger side of the 8 3/4?  Im not sure how tight is needs to be. 

2.  My driveshaft is for a small U joint and the 8 3/4 yoke is for the large U joint.  What do I do?  Can I swap in the small yoke from my old 8 1/4?  If I can, is it a good idea?  Do I need the larger U joint for a car with more HP?

Not sure on the adjuster.   :scratchchin:

If I remember right,  They make a universal u-joint you can buy.  That adapts the 7260 to the bigger 7290 yoke.   :yesnod:
