How do you change the u-joints in a 1982 chevy pickup?

Our driveline has plastic plugs that are apparently holding the old ujoints in place. Does anyone know how to remove these nasty little buggers? Thanks!!!How do you change the u-joints in a 1982 chevy pickup?
Yes, use a torch heat the jount, melt out the plastic, press out the old one , but in the new one with the clips as supplyed and install it. you are now done.How do you change the u-joints in a 1982 chevy pickup?
Benson has obviously done this before. LOL I too have experienced this. Heating with a torch until the plastic bubbles out is the only way i know.
