You will need a heavy duty press, at a minimum. This will allow you to push
the u-joint out and then press another one in. And some luck. I did my
71BGT with no problem but was unsuccessful on the 67 - the u-joint wouldn't
budge and my press wasn't up for the job. I finally had to have a shop
replace it for me.
Removing and re-installing the drive shaft itself shouldn't be a real problem.
