[Chrysler300] worn ball/trunion

["John J. Hertog" <crossram@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good point, Marv. I am fortunate to have an experienced driveshaft shop in
my area that can handle this task. The Driveshaft Shop, 208 E Blydenburgh
Rd., Islandia, N.Y. 11749. (631) 348-1818 ...

apparently there has been some change of ownership..

Yes, a VERY large press is required to press the pin out and replace it.
And, yes, it does have to be perfectly centered when reintalled / replaced.
I believe that Mopar made a fixture to that effect which allows insertion of
the pin only to a certain, speciic depth . 

So, Tom Powers, take note. If need be, ship your drivesahft to a competent
shop.

When assembling the new pin in the end of the prop shaft a very large press 
is required and the dimensional control is absolutely critical.  I believe 
within .006.  I would have to check the specs but you will have to do it.
Not 
every shop can press the shaft in.  I haven't had to do one in years but I
do 
recall the high load to press the pin out and in.
