Here is another one in my long line of questions to try and figure out how this torque tube works.

On the torque that I want to install in my truck I see that the ball is nicked up a bit from previous U joint failures. About 18 inches behind the ball I see a collar/nut that attaches the short piece of tube with the ball to the rest of the tube.

How easy is it to exchange balls? Is it just a matter of undoing the collar and exchanging the ball piece?
