Hey-

I know this guy!  Welcome (back) Rick.  Nice to see you on the board.
Does everyone recognize this gentleman?  He's helped me quite a bit over the 
years.

That's it.  Don't want to take away from the subject of the post.
Mopar to y'all.

When I change the 7260 yoke to a 7290 yoke, do I have to set up the
ring and pinion again?

A.:
MAYBE.

If it's in a straight-pinion pig - 741 or 742 casting, no. Just swap it,
torque nut to specs.

If it's a crush sleeve pig, i.e., #489, etc., the turning torque must be
measured before removing the yoke. If the same torque value (or a little
more) can't be achieved with the new yoke, you'll need a new crush sleeve
(just remove the pinion seal).

Nothing else need be touched. The pig need not be removed, although the
torque measurement deal is the same in or out of the car.

You'll need a very small-value torque wrench or torque screwdriver to do
this properly.
