After 4 hours of banging, prying, pressing, and possibly breaking my thumb when I hit it with a hammer, I got the new U-joints back into the drive shaft. I was a virgin at this operation (as I have b

I've been told I need new U-joints (The dreaded "click") What kind of a DIY project is this? As far as parts go, do I just need to get new U-joints, or are there additional parts that are required? A

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

U joints are a "right of passage" job. Sometimes the job is easy and can be performed with a large bench vise. Other times after hours of swearing the newly installed but damaged joint fails in a mo

You *shouldn't* need a press, although if something is wrong with yours you may. The manual shows them being tapped out by use of a mallet and this is how I changed mine. PaulH. push wouldn't problem

I've always been able to do it with a medium-sized bench vise, and a proper diameter socket. But YMMV. And it shouldn't require any additional parts. Consider lubing all the chassis points while you'

One thing I learned after I put mine in wrong - My original u-joints did not have a grease fitting. The new ones did - a long one to make it easy to grease. Well if you look at the yoke you can see

The procedure recommended in the Haynes manual involves using your knockoff mallet and a socket small enough to fit through the yolk as you drive the U-joint out. Use a block of wood to brace the yo
