Moser / Reid Roler Tail Yoke

Turns out that a west coast CO machined the Moser yokes that Moser sell for the Reid PG roller tail
When I called them (Inland Empire Driveline) they said the spec for the Yoke was 1.494
I pointed out that the Reid website quotes a 1.499 to 1.497 shaft to fit a 1.500 roller bearing
The person I talked with said that they had to have changed from the original bearing size
Because the 1.494 yoke fit the early bearing (1.495) as required
He did verify that the the yoke material was 4340 heat treated and ground to size

Reid lists a Strange yoke on their website
Called Strange - that yoke size is 1.499

I believe the BTE roller tail uses a 1.500 bearing as well

Maybe that is why Damon didnt use the Moser

BTW - sanded a std PG yoke down to a 1.498 size and it fit in the bearing like a glove
Started at about 1.501 - OK for a bushing.
