Default RE: Driveline issues(frt u-joint)

I'm not sure about the yoke, but once you put the u-joint in and you put all the caps on and everything I'm assuming that you checked how well the U-joint moved with your fingers, before you reinstalled it, did it move around freely or did it take force to move it? It's possible that Napa sold you a shatty u-joint, but if it was put together incorrectly that could've cause it also.
