Just remove the universal joints and the entire yoke will come off.
The joints can be removed with a 6" (pref. 8") c-clamp, a pair of needle noise pliers, and two sockets (one a bit smaller than the end caps and one larger than the opening of the yoke's cap openings).
It helps to relieve tension after every turn of the c-clamp by striking the c-clamp with a hammer. Also oil the clamp up really good before doing this, and spray some PB. Its also a great time for new u-joints.
Also, be sure to mark which way the u-joints came off of the DS so you can put them back on the way they came off.
