I herped when I should have derped and ended up pushing a new u-joint's bearing cap alllll the way through. Now I can't get the cap back out the way it came and I can't get the cross out of the yoke.

What's the easiest part of the u-joint to cut? The polished surface where the bearings ride, or closer to the center? These are non-greasable (read: sealed) u-joints, so the center is not hollow.
