OK, there have been a few posts about the full circle clips, and I'm sure there has been some about tack welding. I'd like to know the pro-and cons of each. From what I see.
weld clips
pros - -dont need to grind -easier tail fix
yokes out
cons - -could ruin u-joint if -removing material to fit clips
weld sucks
-gotta grind out to replace
and will event. ruin shaft
(assuming yokes stay)
I have also heard of some people using high strength loc-tite...which will make a trail fix virtually impossible. There is also a place that I saw that makes sleeves that fit in the cap and replace the needle bearings. I forget who made them, if anyone has any info on them, please pass it along. Any ideas...how much material is actually needed to be grinded out to fit the full circle clips, I know it's enough to fit the clip, but is it a lot? Thanks _nicko_
