Default replacing u-joints in the knuckles

i wouldnt recommend doing it. i brought my truck to have the drives side replaced. the shop couldnt get the rotor off...then couldnt get the hub/bearing assembly off so they called the dodge dealership and they said there is a special puller and then ended up getting it off. the press wouldnt break the seal on the u-joint caps so they had to cut each "arm" off the u-joint. so it was a big pain in the a$$. my truck was in the shop from 10:30 am to 5:00 pm and all they did was get everything unassembled. im real glad i didnt try it by myself. hope this can help anyone and save some aggervation and some colorful words and flying tools
