How do I get the U-joints out - TRS
 

The book shows using an adapter (I'v got a 1 1/4 socket over one end), then press it out.
i'm using a vise as the press, I tried that but nothing moves. I afraid to put more pressure on it, may break the yoke??
Please tell me how to do this.
Thanks, Larry

Been a while since I did a TRS. Make sure there are no clips on the inside holding the caps in place.

It has clips, but I already removed them.
Thanks

Don't be afraid to put a little muscle into it baby. :D Put the caps under tension and then tap on the yokes a little bit with a ball-peen hammer if its really stuck. If they've been in there awhile it will take some pressure to get them to pop.

They have been wet (Salt water) and I figure they are'nt going to be easy, but i was scared to put too much pressure on it.
So, the answer is, I need a biiger Hammer, LOL
Thanks

YEP,,,bigger is always better ,,,THATS WHAT SHE SAID .LOL:drink:

You can put a little heat on them as well.

I agree with Audiofn. Fire is your friend................................

I was going to ask if I should put some heat on er.
I'll try it in the morning.
THANKS

Wear safety glasses if you put the torch too them. Sometimes you'll boil the grease out of them and it will spray out of the seals. A ball joint press like what you can rent at the auto part stores may be a little easier that a vise if you still have the shafts in the drive too. If you already have them out and doing it on a bench then nevermind.
