Tech Note 1: Tools & Procedures
Most axle shaft universal joint service is done using makeshift tools and hammering on the parts until something gives. Axle Shafts and Axle universal joints are precise components that can be easily damaged by such slam-bang work. There is a better way to perform u-joint service using application specific press tooling and approved service procedures such as those illustrated in my four page, color illustrated, TSB4597 Dodge Truck AAM Front Axle Shaft Service Tech Bulletin. Also See our U-Joint Tools web page or our individual Tool Pages for QT1065M C-Frame Press, QT4009 Large U-Joint Separator Yoke, QT4011 Press Tip and QT4015 Press Anvil.

Tech Note 2: Before Removing
Due to the amount of force needed to press out big joints like these from the axle shaft yokes, it is very easy to compress the yoke ears enough to take a "set" that will make installing the snap rings difficult or impossible. This will not only increase your blood pressure, but it will also guarantee short part life if you do force the rings in. We see this problem over and over again, in fact more universal joints and axle yokes are wrecked by slam-bang methods of u-joint replacement than by any other cause. Moral of the story is: Use the right tools and service procedures or be prepared to pay the price!
