Ball spline yoke broke

[huckleberry_hound]

Whats the correct way to remove the yoke from the end of the ball spline? I removed the bolt in the end of the shaft but couldn't budge the yoke

It should slide off. Small amount of heat from a propane torch should do it. We ran ball splines for years. New yoke each season. Checked for cracks every 4-5 nights.

Take a propane torch,apply a little heat and it will fall off.

I've never had that happen. Good info to replace the yoke every season. Hope you didn't tear up too much stuff.
