If I change the yokes on my D44 HP and D70U that are in my '78 Bronco (upgrading drivelines) do I need to set pinion preload or anything? I know when I do the yokes on the 205 it will just be R&R but I dont know on the axles. (I didnt set up the gears)

No.

Or at least I did not when I swapped the front 44 yoke to a 1350 series. And I'm planning on doing the same thing with the D60 rear. I know they don't use a crush sleeve, so maybe this why?

No crush sleeve, just crank them down. They need about 250 lb-ft. Use a new nut and a torque wrench, it's a lot tighter than you think.
