• Q: How to Assemble a Universal Joint with Injected Rings on 2008 Dodge Durango?

  A: Take the universal joint and set it in the flange with just one bearing cap. Press receiver 1 on the flange along with bearing cap 2, then press bearing cap 2 until you see snap ring groove 1 turning up in the flange 2. Install snap ring 2 onto bearing 1 after that. Put press 3 onto the remaining bearing cap and flange with receiver 2 first, then push the bearing cap firmly so the snap ring groove goes through the flange. Place snap ring 1 onto bearing cap 2. Following this, put in flange 1 that connects to the U-joint in yoke 2. With receiver 1 held down, press 2 and lower bearing cap 3 on the yoke, pressing all the way until the snap ring groove is clear of the yoke. Put snap ring 2 onto bearing cap 1. Place bearing cap 2 over the rest of the bearings, with receiver 3 facing surface 4 of bearing cap 1 lip. Then, turn bearing cap 2 down until its snap ring groove just passes the yoke, letting you place snap ring 2 into the same groove on bearing cap 1.
