One more question. I have installed a u joint. I am not sure one side
snap ring is fully seated. ...


Use a small drill bit as a gage to compare the visible height of the
rings or the end gaps.

Would it be ok to slightly grind the diameter of the ring? I seem to
have tried everything.


Scrape the groove clean and remove any burrs on the edge.
