Front axle U-Joint replacement
 

Can someone please direct me to any thread that lists the sequence for R&R of the front u-joints in my 2006 3500 4x4 Dodge Ram Dually? Thanks, Dan H

This has all the info you need to know! Not too hard, just be careful pulling your bearings not to damage them.

U joints?

Well that thread you need to follow up to pressing the ball joints out if not doing ball joints. At that point just replace the front u joints as you would any other u joint.

Thank you, 38146

no no no no..... my u joints came out so hard i couldnt believe it. i had to buy three of them cuz i broke one putting it in they were extremely tight so get your torch ready

Mine were very tight also use a lot of PB Blaster I've done them with a old socket and a BFH and a ball joint press was easier.

Are the front axle u-joints plastic bedded like the drive shaft u-joints?

If they are, you need to heat up the metal to melt the plastic to remove them.

Axleshaft u-joints are not plastic bedded. Just used lots of penatrating spray.
