It isn't feasible to remove the tranny yoke without removing the drive shaft along with it. The tranny yoke is permanently attached to the drive shaft via the front U-joint. You would need to press off the U-joint caps to remove the yoke from the drive shaft. The rear U-joint is connected to the differential yoke via two U-bolts. All you do is remove the two rear U-bolts, dislodge the rear U-joint from the differential yoke and slide the drive shaft to the rear until the tranny yoke is free of the tranny. Then you can get at the tailshaft seal and inspect the tranny yoke for wear. Much easier that way.
