U joint replacement on prop shaft
I am working on a 1997 sportsman 500, and I noticed the rear u joint on the front prop shaft is real loose and worn.
Is this a replaceable part, or do I need to replace the whole shaft.
Also, how does it disconnect from the output shaft of the transmission. It appears to just be splined and should slide off, but I don't think the previous owner ever greased it and now it is rusted & won't budge. I have been soaking it with a penetrating oil to help loosen.
Thanks in advance.
