Re: u joints
i have a press and beat them out because its faster. place bottom of shaft over a large socket and use a driver on the top cap, i have a piece or 3" plate welded to the top of my driver. i got really tired of hitting my hand with the BFH. this is what i do 5 days a week.
if you use a press its best to push down on the cross instead of the cup across from the cup youre pushing out. if the cup youre pushing on hangs in the yoke it will collapse the yoke. if you can get a ujoint in it wont last long.
i would avoid using precision and parts house brand ujoints at all cost, a good neapco or spicer joint isnt too hard to find.
