DS shop?

[Sandman]

I will be swapping out my u-joints next weekend and an looking for any tips and I was told to take my DS to a shop to get the u-joints pressed in. What shop around here will do it?

Napa usually does them, or carquest. Pretty much any place with a machine shop will do it for you.

Do them yourself. They are EASY. Save the money. But if you wont do that Auto Parts Warehouse does them. 574-1234.

I am going to take them out myself I just heard that it is better to get them pressed in properly. I will just take my DS to a shop to do that.

What is the best method to get them in myself?

a vise and various size sockets. You'll know they are in far enough when you can put on the retaining clips. Just a tip that i wish i would've known for my first u-joint swap. The GM joints have a plastic "pin" through the yoke and cap. Melt that pin with a torch before you press them out and it will make it 50x easier.

What he said. If ya want you can bring it to my shop one evening this week and we can do it up for you.

Frank works at Furrin Auto on Tennessee Street. And he says $20. Just PM him and let him know when you wanna do it.
