My pass. side 260x grenaded. Pulled the shaft and removed the c clips but Ill be damned if I can get the joint to press out. I've tried the bench vise trick with sockets, I have beat on the caps and tapped on the yokes to try and loosen it. There is minimal rust but I know that doesn't mean its not frozen. I dont have a torch so I havent been able to put heat on it. Im wondering if I should just hit the J/Y and get another shaft but it doesnt seem worth it since I will still have to use the old style joint (dont have time to do the one piece shaft upgrade). Anybody know any tricks or tips before I go waste my money? Thanks guys.
