Some UJs are not easily rebuildable as the bearing is retained by deforming the yoke around the bearing with a press. This often looks like a series of "dashes" in a ring.

Staked Uj`s

You can remove the UJ with a hammer and vice. Chances are the ends of the caps will break off. We would then gas axe (engineering term for gas cutting) the cross and tap the caps out with a punch.

You need a special tool to refit a UJ. I have never seen one done successfully without........

leave it to the professionals
