Some advice please. Are there any tricks to installing a u-joint properly without making a total botch of it? I've done one or two on a driveshaft, but I can't say I did them well or even right at al

If they get hard to move right at the end, then chances are that you've let one of the rollers fall over and get trapped between the end of the cross and the cap. Only solution at that point is to t

One thing that I always do is put some stiff grease (axle grease works fine) in thecups to hold the needle bearings in place so they do not fall out of the outer perimeter amd not fall down in the ce

This is the way I do it and it goes rather well and rather quickly. First I give a soaking of PB Blaster to minimize the pounding as much as possible. I put a large (1 1/16) socket on the floor to d

I do it much the same as David, but I do use the vise with the sockets. One thing I found that was particularly helpful last week as I replaced one of my driveshaft u-joints was to use my brake cyli

Never, ever, ever, EVER pound while installing a U joint. If you're pounding the joint in, you're just going to have to change it again. That's fine if you're stuck on the side of the road, but not

Ah. Yes, pounding while disassembling is often necessary ... and satisfying! _______________________________________________ Support Team.Net http://www.team.net/donate.html This list supported in pa

I did replace the u-joints in my TR3A when I rebuilt my driveshaft. Went fairly smoothly, got it right, but wanted to be sure about the balance. I do recommend taking the final product to a place tha
