Rear Non=CV Driveshaft question

[ccannon222]

Does the slip yoke end mount on the T-case of the diff on stock 84-89 toyota trucks and 4runners?  My 85 4runner bought used had it mounted at the diff end.  My 85 pickup bought used had it at the t-case end and my brothers 88 v6 4runner had it at the t-case end.  Also, does it matter which end is at the t-case flange?

thanks

Here is my take on it..If your doing alot of rockcrawling and have a stock thinkness driveshaft ,,then the slip yolk should go towards the diff,,,reason is it gives you a few mor inces of space to beat on so that the tube does not get dented..the youlk can take a good beating...If your just running regular trails then run the slip atthe top near t-case..i think there it takes less abuse from the weather,mud and grime...but other then that it really don't matter..

The factory plan was slip yoke at the t-case.  Most folks with a CV  put the slip yoke at the diff.
