Hi Work,

Not familiar with your particular outfit, but it may be configured like GM's u-joints. From the factory, they are held in place by an internal ring of teflon.

What you do is, SLOWLY heat the cup area of the yoke with a torch and the stuff will boil out of a little bleed hole. When the teflon stops "worming" out of the bleed hole, you can then remove the cup in the usual way.

Clean the yoke up good; replacement cross cups are then held in place by the conventional internal C-clip.

DON'T HEAT THE YOKE TOO FAST! The darn things explode and shoot that cup across the shop like a bullet.
