I GOT IT!
I was able to remove the drive shaft with the u-joints and the yoke. I also pressed out the U joints with some sockets and my bench vise.(Boy that was was scary!)
I am now cleaning the shaft and the yoke so I can paint them and then I will reinstall them. Sounds like I have done the easy part and I know to be very careful putting in the new joints and reattaching.
I can not believe I have gotten this far! Oh yeah! I will let everyone know how it goes puttin it back together.
Thanks for everyone's advice!
