I removed the rear driveline to install new u-joints. Now I can't get the slipyoke to reassemble. Yes, everything is indexed the same as it came apart. Suggestions anybody. HELP

Dropped a couple of times? Wow. That's something you want to avoid, and if you can't, at least cushion the fall with a blanket or something.
Try filing the burrs off. Make sure you clean the filings, you don't want them in the grease.

did you fill the fitting on the side of the driveshaft with grease
oh sorry its a 80
You can buy thread files or even the triangular files I have found work really well. Hopefully by indexed you mean marked before pulled apart or your balance will be off and the u joints will be out of phase. Good luck

Wow everyone, thanks for the quick help. Upon closer, "Less Pissed" inspection I did find some burrs. So its time to degrease the splines again, and gently smooth them. Thanks for the help.
