t18 trans work with ranger driveshaft?

[cosp]

I just bought a 302 that came with a t-18 trans for 50 bucks (hells ya) but on the back of the t-18 is a yolk not splines. I know there is a bolt back there to remove to take off the yolk but what do i need to adapt that? It seems I can just put the range u joint on the second half of the yolk but then there is no driveline flex to allow for the axle moving up and down. I read through the tech lib. and there is nothing with the t-18 i hope its not one of these rare trans. Any ideas?

You can't pull the yoke and use it as a slip yoke. It's a fixed output which is stronger anyways. You will need a fixed yoke driveshaft with a slip in the center like on most 4x4 rangers. You will need to get a shaft made for that appication, The T18/19 isn't rare by any means...you can find them in almost any late 70 to mid 80s fullsize.
