For removal of the u joint in the torque tube on a 46 1/2 ton, do I support the rear end with jack stands, or do I support the rear frame with jack stands and let the rear dangle unsprung. I know you are supposed to place a jack stand under the center of the torque tube as it will have downward force once the u joint is removed. Looking to install an okie bushing asap. Thanks!
