Re: [Chrysler300] Ball & Trunnion Pin

Freeze the pin prior to installing it and warm the end of the driveshaft it
will slide instead of jumping.  The cold contracts the pin and the heat
expands the hole your shoving it into.

Hi Ron,
The only time I have done one, it took all my 20 ton press could give. I
crushed the first socket I used as a driver before it moved. It's also very
hard to get it perfectly in the middle like the manual suggests. It likes to
"jump" instead of moving smoothly. If it wasn't an extremely tight fit, I
doubt it could take the stress it's under.
300ly,
Don

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,
Ron Kurtz
