I use a vice and a hammer to disassemble. Lay the yoke across the open vice, beat downward on the solid part of the yoke, (not the hollow shaft!) to push the cup out. Just have to be careful to catch the needles if planning to reuse it, no guarantee some won't get broken or lost!
Going back together I like the vice best, easier to feel and control the pressure. If tha vice won't do it, something is wrong.
Like others said, put the cross in without the grease fitting, push it all the way to one side, put the cup on the cross, squeeze it in and go as far past the snap ring as you dare without pushing it all the way through. Put the snap ring on that cup.
Then sit the other cup on the cross, push it in until the snap ring on the others side stops it, put the snap ring on that side, give it a wack in the opposite direction to center it.
Tips:
Do the smallest, lightest part first. No use wrestling the heavy part any more than you have to.
Have an assistant to help hold the long, heavy part. Or, clamp a board, make a stand, do something to support the end of the shaft.
An old magnetic drain plug, or a magnet about the size of the cup works very well to press the cup in the yoke. Otherwise it turns into a 3 handed juggling match trying to hold everything in place!

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Traction - by Chris Pratt. Our first bout with traction problems came when cultivatin with our Massey-Harris Pony. Up till then, this tractor had been running a corn grinder and pulling a trailer. It had new unfilled rear tires and no wheel weights. The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
