 U-joint removal does anyone know how to get the u-joint off of the shaft. I'm trying to take the engine off of a go-devil longtail.

Re: U-joint removal if you are trying to take the joint out of the yoke, you need to know out the C-clips and then use sockets and a hammer to know out the joint. Good luck. Ince you look sat it youll know what to do.

Re: U-joint removal man that things givin you hell aint she??! just be sure not to pull directly against the shaft. if you take the yoke apart you should be able to use a puller or something to get her off. good luck. them things can get all kinds of seized up!

Re: U-joint removal u may want to take the yoke apart so you can get the engine in a better position, off the frame. then youl have a lot more room to work with.

Re: U-joint removal Go rent a balljoint press and you will thank yourself. You will need a 7/8" socket and an impact wrench and go to town.
