4. Use a soft, round drive pin with a flat face
approximately 1/32" (0,8 mm) smaller than the hole
diameter in the yoke to drive on one end of the cross
and bearing assembly until the opposite bearing
assembly comes out of the yoke.
5. Turn the yoke over and tap on the exposed end of
the cross until the opposite bearing assembly comes
out of the yoke.
6. Remove the cross (Fig. 5 -13, 2) from the yoke
(4 or 5).
7. Repeat Steps 2-6 to remove the cross and bearing
assembly on the other end of the drive shaft.
8. Engine-to-Transmission Drive Shaft Only: Use a
pair of pliers to compress the snap rings holding the
cross (Fig. 5-13, 2) and bearing assemblies (3) to
the flange yoke (6). Remove the snap rings from the
grooves in the yoke.
9. Use a soft, round drive pin with a flat face
approximately 1/32" (0,8 mm) smaller than the hole
diameter in the yoke to drive on one end of the cross
and bearing assembly until the opposite bearing
assembly comes out of the yoke.
10. Mark the yoke shaft (Fig. 5 -13, 4) and slip yoke (5)
so that they can be properly aligned when
reassembled. Yokes at both ends of the drive shaft
must be in the same plane to help prevent excessive
vibration.
11. Unscrew the dust cap (Fig. 5-13, 7) and slide the
slip yoke (5) off of the drive shaft splines.
12. Remove the dust cap (Fig. 5 -13, 7), split retaining
ring (8), and felt seal (9) from the shaft assembly.
