Unservisable U Joints

They're held in place by injected nylon .... so heat them up good and hot (the nylon will come out of the hole like a worm with the heat) , & press them out. The replacements will have half-moon clips which go on the inside ... so you must watch your installation progress carefully. If they get pressed in too far, you'll never get the clips in properly & you'll be throwing your new joint in the trash.
