Overview
The Currie 88-CF10 is a 1310 series companion flange style pinion yoke for stock 8.8 inch Ford car and truck rear-ends. A companion flange is the part the driveshaft bolts to at the pinion, and this one has threaded holes on an 8 on 3 1/2 inch bolt circle.
It is made for stock 8.8 inch rear-ends only, so other axle sizes are not covered.

Pinion flange service tips
A companion flange sits on the pinion shaft and holds the driveshaft yoke in place, so its fit and surface condition affect the whole driveline. The pinion nut that clamps the flange sets bearing preload, which is why its tightening is treated as a precision step. Many shops replace the nut when the flange comes off, since new nuts cost little compared with a second teardown.
The seal surface on the flange is a common reason for a pinion leak. A grooved or rusted surface will wear a new seal quickly, so inspect it closely before installation. Check the driveshaft slip yoke and U-joints at the same time, since vibration after this work often comes from a worn joint rather than the flange itself.
- Inspect the seal surface for grooves or rust
- Replace the pinion nut when the flange is removed
- Check driveshaft U-joints for play
- Confirm the flange threads are clean before tightening
