Re: U-Joints @ Axle versus Double Cardon??

I replaced the u-joint at rear axle succesffuly.  However when going after the DC u-joints I was only able to pound the caps down 1/4" (approx).

It looks like the cap is a slightly small diameter than the ridge the snap ring fits into toward the center of u-joint.

Does that sound right?  It was hard to tell, but I hit a major sticking point on pounding the cap out :(

Is the Double Cardon sometimes 'not serviceable'?  Meaning if the jionts in them go bad you stuck getting a new Drive Shaft with a new DC?
If I don't ask the stupid question, who will?

85 Runner, 22RE, AEM 'warm intake', TRD Cam, LC Headers, Dual Case, 5.29's, ARB Front Locker, Detroit Rear Locker, 35's, V6 Brakes, ARP Studs, Marlin Arms/Caps/Hy-Steer, Winch, Armor, Can-Back Top....and...

...more Gremlins than Gizmo the Mogwai was responsible for.
