Before installing the u-joints in the rear axle shafts on my TR4A, I
took a Dremel tool sanding bit and ran it through the yokes to clean up
where the u-joint caps would fit through.  After installing the
u-joints, I noticed that some of the caps tend to rotate inside the
yoke, instead of remaining stationary.  Is this a case of a little too
much polishing or do I have a bigger problem?  Seems to me that all the
motion should be the spider inside the cap, not the cap in the yoke.
 
 
Peace be with you!
