Use a Grinder to grind an angle on the end of the clips. If you
replace it once, it will need it again..<br>

Thanks all!

<div>To Phil: The hole would be drilled in the yoke and not the
cross I am replacing. Very destructive but probably effective.</div>
<div>To Jim: The ends are flat of course )-: I have seen others
like you describe.</div>
<div>To Carl and Milo: your suggestions are pretty similar to
what I was doing. I guess I just need to get better at it.</div>
<div>To Steve: Order placed (-; I actually have been in the
market for a better set of pics for other reasons so this is a
good excuse to get them.<br>
<br>
What’s frustrating is the new cross kit came with the same exact
kind of clips. Hope I never have to get into this universal
joint again</div>

<div>Sometimes one end is cut at an angle. You
will have a little better luck with Milo’s
method if you try getting the pick under the end
with the angle cut. If both ends are cut
square, it will be difficult.</div>

<pre>I replaced a bent pto shaft on an implement a few weeks ago. I had to remove the two outer clips and press it out. I put it back together in a hurry and I decided to reuse the clips. Bad choice. During tedding a clip came off and the cross lost its cups and needle bearings.
So I am replacing with a new cross kit and most notably, I have a clip to remove now. I just remember the first time it was a real bugger because these clips don’t have holes in them. I can’t remember how I eventually did it (I think I finally was able to anchor one side and get a cotter pin remover under the other side) but I used cuss words I haven’t used in a long time and spent way more time than I am willing to spend this time.
So I thought I’d ask for advice.
How do you folks remove these? (Pic below) I’ve searched all over the Internet but everyone’s got those clips with the ears or clips with holes in them in all the videos I’ve seen. I’ve seen a few mentions on forums but they all do things like drill behind it so you can stick a nail in and push it and other stuff like that.
Thanks in advance!
