Joint makes contact. You want to remove enough material to loosen up the friction, but not introduce
any side-to-side play in the part. Do this for all six U-Joint locations.
You may want to insert one of the U-Joint axle rods to help get a feel on how much
force is needed to turn the U-Joint. Just remember, you don't want any side-to-side play in how the U-
Joint fits.

Figure 48 - U-Joints and U-Joint Axles Installed.
15.5 - You can install these parts by either setting the U-Joints in place and then sliding the axles
in from the end, or put the U-Joint on the axle, set them into one half of the platform and then fit the
other platform half in place when you're done.
