Dana Spicer Power Take Off (PTO) Slip Yoke

Dana Spicer PTO Slip Yokes: OE-Grade Drivetrain Precision

When a Power Take Off system needs to transfer rotational power from a vehicle's transmission to auxiliary equipment — whether that's a hydraulic pump, a generator, or agricultural implements — every component in the driveline chain has to perform flawlessly. The PTO slip yoke is one of the most critical of those components, providing the sliding engagement that accommodates axial movement along the driveshaft while keeping torque flowing smoothly. Dana Spicer has built its reputation on engineering exactly this kind of precision-critical drivetrain hardware, and their PTO slip yokes reflect that pedigree in every dimension.

Why Genuine Spicer PTO Slip Yokes Stand Apart

Dana's design, engineering, testing, and manufacturing processes all work in conjunction with one another to ensure unparalleled performance that non-genuine parts simply cannot deliver. That integrated approach — from raw material selection through final inspection — is what separates a genuine Spicer component from an aftermarket substitute.

Spicer driveshaft yokes are forged from hardened steel, heat treated to endure tough conditions, and engineered for a precise fit to minimize noise, vibration, and harshness and keep your driveline running smoothly. In a PTO application, where shock loads and continuous high-torque cycling are the norm, that level of material integrity isn't a luxury — it's a necessity.

Spicer yokes deliver the same quality and reliability you expect from original equipment parts — because they are OE parts, manufactured to the same standards and specifications as the components installed in your vehicle in the first place. This is a key advantage for fleet operators and equipment managers who need guaranteed fitment with no guesswork.

The Spicer 1000 Series — Built for PTO Duty

The Spicer 1000 Series slip yoke is engineered to deliver greater efficiency and better overall performance, and is made in the USA — ensuring excellent craftsmanship that lives up to Spicer's reputation for quality and durability. The 1000 Series is the workhorse of Dana's PTO lineup, found across commercial trucks, farm tractors, and industrial power equipment.

Spicer PTO slip yokes are available with round, square, or hex hole configurations , allowing proper fitment across a wide range of PTO shaft standards. Key dimensional parameters — including bearing cap diameter, hole size, inside yoke dimension, and keyway width — are precisely specified so technicians can confirm an exact match before installation. Dana backs its manufacturing with ISO 9001 Quality Management and ISO 14001 Environmental Management System certifications.

Applications: Trucks, Agriculture & Beyond

Spicer PTO slip yokes see service in a remarkably broad range of environments. Applications span agricultural PTO shafts, commercial trucks, boats, paper mills, metal processing facilities, industrial plants, and factories — anywhere rotating power must be reliably transmitted from a primary source to auxiliary machinery. This cross-industry reach is a testament to the versatility and robustness of the Spicer 1000 Series platform.

For anyone maintaining or rebuilding a PTO-equipped drivetrain, choosing a genuine Dana Spicer component from the PTO Slip Yoke category is the straightforward path to OE-quality performance, known dimensional accuracy, and the confidence that comes from over a century of drivetrain engineering expertise.
