GMC Sonoma Universal Joint Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: What tools are required to service and repair the universal joint, and what are the steps involved in the process on GMC Sonoma?A: To service nylon injected and external snap ring universal joints requires using U Joint Bearing Separator (J 9522-3) plus U Joint Bearing Spacer Remover (J 9522-5). Set the propeller shaft into the press table with minimum contact that might harm the tubing. Tag the shaft surface at the transmission and rear axle positions. Secure the lower yoke end on a 1 1/8 inch socket stand while using the U Joint Bearing Separator (J 9522-3) to push the bottom bearing cup from the yoke cavity. When the bearing cup proves difficult to remove use the U Joint Bearing Spacer Remover (J 9522-5) by inserting it into the yoke ear. Follow the propeller shaft rotation to take off the opposite bearing cup from the slip yoke then write down its orientation for reassembly. Check for any damage or foreign materials in the bores and grooves of both retaining rings and bearing cups after extracting them. After making sure the trunnion seat fits properly you can push the bearing cup at one end of the yoke all the way until it stops. Fit the second bearing cup in the yoke and match its trunnion positions. Use the press to move the bearing retainer until its groove shows then fit both retainers into place. A basic hammer tool should be used briefly on the yoke if it does not fit properly while grease on the retainer snap ring makes insertion simpler.
