Re: [Chrysler300] Ball & Trunnion Pin

[c300c@xxxxxxx]

Ron,
 
You should take the driveshaft to a shop that knows what they  are doing 
with a ball and trunnion joint.
 
Best I recall (about 30 years ago) mine required about 20 tons  to remove 
the pin. But wait...reinstalling the pin requires a special tool to  assure 
that it is perfectly centered. If not, your driveshaft will vibrate as if  
you had a bad u-joint.
 
Just my 5 cents...

Hello,  everyone:

I am replacing worn ball and trunnion parts and applied 10  tons of 
pressure on 
the pin to remove it. It is not coming out. How much  pressure can be used 
without breaking the drive shaft?

Best  regards,
