[ercoupe-tech] U-joints

[Percy]

...as opposed to clip joints...   :-)
  A chum is looking at his Ercoupe nose wheel shimmy and has tracked 
most of it down to a loose rod end bearing.  He is now looking at the U-
joints at the "T" that connect to the yokes.  He would like to replace 
them, but is unsure of a supplier.  Any ideas?
  Also - one person suggested removing the taper pins with a rivet gun 
(and lots of WD-40).  Has any one tried this?
