Re: U joint

Your existing U-Joints are probably held in place with molten Plastic that was injected into a tiny hole in the yoke and then cooled. I doubt that there are grooves inside the holes of the yoke that the spring clips will fit into, If memory serves, when I did mine, the C-shaped clips were installed on the inside of the yoke, in the grooves of the cap, and if there is a U-Bolt to hold two of the four caps, then you would obviously only need 2 clips. Have you ever replaced this type of U-joint before?
