Just a couple of quick tips so you can easily do this job single handed...
Use a funnel in the end of the brake booster line with a small hex head bolt that drops loosely into the tip of the funnel. A 1/4" bolt fit my funnel perfectly with very small gaps at the bolt head flats. That...
'96 Tahoe LS 4WD 5.7l currently 217K miles. Oil and filter changed every 3-4K miles by me, dealer, or Valvolene. Air filter and wiper blades once per year. Intake cleaned with Seafoam every 50K mi. All work done by me except where noted.

I've been trying to remove my lower intermediate shaft for the last day and half so I can repair the worn out rag joint with the Dorman kit. I've separated the shaft from the steering box, but the upper end where it slides into the coupler on the bottom end of the upper intermediate shaft right...
