Figure 20.
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 bear-
ing 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 small-
er than the cup) on cup and rap with a hammer. See
Figure 31. 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 with-
out restriction.
SERVICING TIRES SAFELY
Used Aircraft Tires (Figure 21)
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.

tion of tire and rim

serious injury or
death. Release all
air pressure before
loosening bolts.
