U-Joint Assembly

1. Place seals securely on bearing cups. Insert cup

into yoke from outside and press in with hand

pressure as far as possible. Insert journal cross

into bearing cup with grease fitting away from

shaft. Be careful not to disturb needle bearings.

Insert another bearing cup directly across from first

cup and press in as far as possible with hand

pressure.

2. Trap cups in vise and apply pressure. Be sure

journal cross is started into bearings and continue

pressure with vise, squeezing in as far as possible.

Tapping the yoke will help.

3. Seat cups by placing a drift or socket (slightly

smaller than the cup) on cup and rap with a

hammer. Install snap ring and repeat on opposite

cup.

4. Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 to install remaining cups

in remaining yoke.

5. Move both yokes in all directions to check for free

movement. If movement is restricted, rap on yokes

sharply with a hammer to relieve any tension.

Repeat until both yokes move in all directions

without restriction.

SERVICE TIRES SAFELY

Used Aircraft Tires (Figure 20)

Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the

proper equipment and experience to perform the job.

Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate

tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld or

heat a wheel and tire assembly. The heat can cause an

increase in air pressure and result in a tire explosion.

Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel.

When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and an exten-

sion hose long enough to allow you to stand to the side

— not in front of or over the tire assembly. Use a safety

cage if available.

Check wheels for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, dam-

aged rims, or missing lug bolts and nuts.

Never remove split rim assembly hardware (A) with the

tire inflated.
