Also, does anyone know what would cause only one of the side yokes to wear? I'm planning to repalace the side berrings and seals, everything else seems to be okay.

Does that mean there is not much of a groove left for the C clip to be in?
How much metal from the end of yoke shaft appears to be gone, compared to the other side?
Does the inward end of the yoke push against the pinion shaft surface, and also the wear point? Just making sure I understand where it is worn.
I doubt if a heavy load or anything you did caused this. A one wheel burn out for a really long time is the only way I can think to really cause friction on the end of the yoke. Maybe a loose yoke bearing could set up some kind of movement causing wear. Maybe the yoke was just inferior with a soft spot on the end. The end play might of been set up wrong, there is suppose to be 8 different thickness C clips for adjustment. Sorry just thinking out loud.
