  • Knew I need to do the U-joints on the jeep, and decided to get this kit. I'm a fan of solidly built tools that will do the job, and this one definitely did, once i figured out the niches of how to make it work best. A little penetrant, get the tool tight, and hit the yoke with a hammer!

    Oiling the threads of the tool help immensely and make it last longer!

    Nice to see a mechanic who knows to hit the yoke and not the tool! Great demo!

    Thanks for showing it on a rusted one and not a new one. I have this same issue. Thanks for the demo!

    Good video.
    It will be nice and easy to use some rust penetrants or WD 40 to make the job easier.

      Thank you! For this video I didnt want to and just wanted to show how much effort it takes if they arent "easyfied". The other ujoints I have done, have gotten lube

    When u joints are that rusty I oil them up in advance with motor oil The oil doesn't evaporate like penetrating oil

    I have the larger one for big trucks. It is a life saver on the full round joints.

    Nice tool, but it was heartbreaking watching you destroy a vintage Craftsman ratchet. Applying that kind of torque always, always, always calls for an impact, or at least a breaker bar.

    How did the u-joint slide when you put the tool on?

    • @reeseholler92

      With just the ratchet and no lube, It still came. With some heat and a little lube they would have come right out

    Anyone ever thought of hitting the joint with some heat to free up the corrosion?

    • @reeseholler92

      I usually use heat, but the shop with the torch is 20 hours away and I haven't invested in my own set yet. Just one more thing to move every 3 years

    Why are you using a ratchet and struggling when you could just use an impact? And you didn't push it out crooked.. once it looked crooked it was all the way pushed out, just take the tool off of it and pull the cap off. Lol

      If I had an electric impact I surely would have used it. I just thought the air was too loud and I didn't have as much control as I wanted. I had another one start out crooked some how so thats why I wanted to make sure. Turned out my yoke was splayed and I had to replace it
