U joints

 Thomas dropped by the other day and was concerned because Old Blue was acting up. There was a loud bang when he would shift in to drive from park.
I figured it was a bad U-joint. One peak under the truck and my hypothesis was confirmed. We picked up a couple new U-joints and after a fair amount of "persuading" with a 10lb hand sledge and punch we got the old ones out. The new ones pressed in relatively easily and the whole job only took a hour and a half.
