Just tell your buddy to buy Nimrods quad, it’s three years newer and ready to go!

I can't help for a fix, but I find searching out youtube and some of the quad forums has been a great help. Some have tech sections and even sub forums on Honda, Yam, Suzuki etc.

There’s some very good video tutorials on replacing u-joints. It’s not hard. Just need to know what you’re doing to get the clips out and back in. YouTube is your friend on this one. Just did mine on the side by side. Easy peasy.

Don’t use a press. You’ll bend the yokes. Hammer and a solid surface like a vice or anvil.
