If you have never done them before, should take an hour or two.....but if you have the help of someone who has.....under an hour from start to finish.
Couple tips:
- Be sure to mark the shafts before you bang the old joint out, this way it stays balanced.
- Grease zerks always point towards the driveline.
- Pay very close attention when installing the caps, one needle bearing that "falls down" will ruin your day.
- Be sure to "burp" the joint if they are tight after installing the clips. This is done by striking the driveline near the joint with a hammer. They should move freely without any tight spots.
- When greasing the newly installed joints, make sure grease comes out of every cap.
- Patience, patience, patience.
Good Luck!
