well i thought i could do this job myself seeing as i have done the rest of the u-joints on my jeep already. so to back track, when i bought the u-joints from the driveline shop, the guy that sold them to me highly recommended having him do them for $10 a piece if i brought the axles in. his reasoning was that if i bent an ear on the axle, the clips wouldnt fit anymore. i just shrugged it off since i didnt see it as any different from a driveshaft u-joint replacement. well i got to it and went to press it out, like i had done before and wouldnt you know it, i bent an ear on the drivers side inner shaft. :doh: . so im guessing the axle is now toast.
you can see where the old clip was and how i bent the end nearest the hub. ugh. looks like i wil be hitting up the junkyard and having the shop put them in for me.
