Default -74 Tbird rag joint - how to change?

Lot of play in steering. Is there anything special I should know - never done this before.

It's really no big deal, we did one years ago. Let me guess, you turn the steering wheel about half a turn before it catches up to where you want it to go, then it feels like itover corrects. Right?

Yes, that's how it feels. Now I have bought a new coupling disc and try to change it tomorrow. I guess I just separate the shafts and install this new disc between them. Can you push either part of the shaft inwards to get more room for the disc?
