Just buy the harbor freight set. I don't see why you would have a problem with it if everything was prepped and in correct alignment?I've actually been working on designing a portable ball joint driver set. This way I can carry them with me, in the invent I blow a set of ball joints out when a universal joint breaks.

I've used that tool for countless u-joints..... and now even in the hands of someone else, its still doing just fine. Maybe I got a good one, maybe others got ones that had defects in the cast of the "C" ..... i dunno....what I DO know is IF that thing ever gives up the ghost I'll go buy another one from HF in a heartbeat. (.....and I'll use a 20% off coupon too!)

Well I discovered that my Turdyfive well pooped 
uke: out the cross shaft or spiders didnt really feel like pulling the cover in the rain but its all dented up from the inside so I know its toast.But I got a line on some 4.11 30 disco and turdy5 for a trade on a spare AX-15 I have so Ill swap those in sometime soon I hope then start the hunt for a 8.8 lsd 4.10's. Im happy I found a disco 30 withh 4.11's in it because Im not real happy with my 3.73's and 285's hopefully Ill be able to tell the gear change.

I did something like this to my 89 a while back, and it did the same thing as yours. Had that miss, not running just right. It was the map sensor tube & fitting at the TB. The plastic tube if held up to light looked like a spring it was so cracked. So I replaced it with rubber hose, and a little gasket goo for the fitting on the TB. It ran fine after that.
