<VV> FC Axle Splines

Wowsers John - I'm not trying to pick on you (Why do we keep meeting 
like this?)

Actually - it IS supposed to be a press-fit. It's when the press fit 
goes away that the back and forth occurs which always eventually leads 
to failure. I certainly hope the yoke is free of backlash.

I am trying to understand the suggestions for anti-seize or grease (?). 
What I suggest is JB Weld (or other similar metal filled epoxy) to take 
up any slop. If you can eliminate the slop the yoke will last virtually 
forever.
