8. Re: [TR] u-joint installation (score: 1): Author: "Nolan" <opposumking@verizon.net>; Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2008 14:24:03 -0400; Interesting. When I've watched John Kipping do it he uses a small hammer. He's not one for the BFH, and is pretty vocal to that end. _______________________________________________ Support Team.Net h; /html/triumphs/2008-07/msg00382.html (8,306 bytes)

To me, anything over 18 ounces is "big" and the one John used (you saw the same demonstration as I recall) looked to be about 32 ounces to me.
