Re: u joint replacement?

They're not pressed in, they're put together and molten plastic is injected in a small hole on the "ear". If you clean it up and look carefully you'll see the injection points. The "best" way to remove them is to melt the plastic with a propane torch and remove the U joint. Then go back and get all of the plastic out of the grooves in the driveshaft. Replacements will have the clips to hold them in place.
