To install cross assembly, install one bearing cup part way into one side of yoke and turn this yoke to the bottom. Insert cross into yoke so that the
trunnion seats into bearing. Install opposite bearing cup part way. Ensure both cross journals are started straight into both bearing cups.

Press bearing cups, while moving cross to ensure free movement of trunnions in bearing. If any binding is felt, stop pressing and check needle
bearings to make sure that needle bearings have not been trapped under the ends of the cross journals.
