This weekend's project is to replace the boot on my 53 Cavalier's u-joint.

While I have things apart I plan on replacing my transmission output shaft seal and servicing the rear universal joint. I know replacing the boot is a bit tricky and I have no intention of removing the pin and ending up with my drive shaft out of balance. But are there any tricks, tips, or things to be cautious of?


Thanks Howard!

I got the correct boot from Kanter and there is a method for getting it on without removing the pin, just a bit fussy, but that's okay. I think the service boots were ones that wrapped around and were intended as a temporary fix.

As long as getting the output shaft seal out isn't too complicated, I should be able to get the new one back in. It should all become clear as I take things apart.
