Got into the garage today to put this oakie bushing in .I was not looking forward to doing this as I read some horror stories .I knew it was not going fit but tried to put it in cold and the tube hot with the heat gun .No go bottomed out only a few inches in .I did not hit it hard but could tell it was not going to move so I got it out and spent from about 230 to 530 filing and sanding evenly while checking the fit .I was confident it will fit tight and greased it up and hit it with a hammer with a block of wood ,it was going in smoothly and when I got to the spline area I had a socket that fit perfect and drove it the rest of the way .I thought right on until I tried to turn the driveshaft stuck .I got the u joint spline and dang it don’t fit on all the way either. No marks on the end but won’t side on into the bushing .Any tips please reply thanks
