Everything seemed fine and then just randomly it broke. I think once we pull the axle/u-joint out, we'll be able to figure out what happene; /html/6pack/2005-03/msg00309.html (7,975 bytes)

The replacement U-joints are the problem and you are adjusting a perfectly good yoke to make it fit a problem part. If you do this,; /html/6pack/2005-03/msg00311.html (8,200 bytes)
5. Re: TR6 U-Joint Failure (score: 1): Author: Ed Bratt <bratt@sasktel.net>; Date: Thu, 17 Mar 2005 11:15:35 -0600; Something to try. Before you reassemble your ujoints, wet the parts with Bardahl Oil. I watched a demo of this and was amazed at how the parts would not go together dry, but slipped together wet.

Let that be a lesson to the others on the list; Moss parts will not necessarily be a good fit; If you can go with a known good supplier,; /html/6pack/2005-03/msg00317.html (8,987 bytes)

Yes, one should have part of the joint in the cap when tapping. But when one is swearing, holding the yoke, the joint, the cap, a BFH, and has a high fru; /html/6pack/2005-03/msg00318.html (11,428 bytes)
9. Re: TR6 U-Joint Failure (score: 1): Author: Dale <tpdwinch@yahoo.com>; Date: Thu, 17 Mar 2005 16:43:08 -0800 (PST); Peter is right here. I purchased my u-joints from Auto Zone. These were Spicer units and the fit was snug. Need not need to alter the yoke. Dale I would think twice about honing the holes to accept; /html/6pack/2005-03/msg00323.html (8,508 bytes)
