You probably do but compare it with the old one just to be sure. Look for any burrs on the prop shaft where the U-joints go in. Use sockets and a vise to press everything together. Make sure everything is straight as you press them together. Don't get too crazy with how much pressure to use. If they stop moving but they aren't far enough in then take them apart and start over. Use grease to keep the rollers in place.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">If you get really frustrated then Pgh Driveshaft can replace them for you. They are fairly reasonable priced.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Hope that helps.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Gary</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div><br></div>
