Universal Joint Reassembly

  1. Pack the four grease cavities of the spider with a high quality, extreme pressure N.L.G.I. Grade 2 grease. Do not add additional grease to bearing cup assembly.
  2. Move one end of the spider to cause a trunnion to project through the spider hole beyond the outer machined face of the yoke lug. Place a bearing over the trunnion diameter and align it to the spider hole.

    Using an arbor press, hold the trunnion in alignment with the spider hole and place a solid plug on the upper bearing. Press the bearing into the spider hole enough to install snap ring.

  3. Install a snap ring.
    NOTE: Be sure the snap rings are properly seated in the grooves.
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to install the opposite bearing. If the joint is stiff, strike the yoke ears with a soft hammer to seat the bearing.
  5. Align the setting marks and join the yokes.
