6. Remove the end yoke from the propeller shaft
and place in a soft jawed vise to inspect the
cross hole surfaces. Raised metal can be
removed with a rat tail or half round file. Emery
cloth should be used to remove all rust and
corrosion from cross hole bores.
ASSEMBLY OF UNIVERSAL JOINT
1. Position the cross in the yoke.
2. Move one end of the cross to cause a trunnion
to project through the cross hole beyond the
outer machined face of the yoke lug. Place a
bearing assembly over the trunnion diameter
and align it to the cross hole. Using an arbor
press, hold the trunnion in alignment with the
cross hole and place a solid plug on the upper
bearing assembly.
3. Press the bearing assembly into the cross hole
enough to install a snap ring.
4. Install a snap ring.
5. Peat the above steps to install the opposite
bearing assembly.
