Just like EVERYBODY says, I think it is just surface rust and I think it should come off easily. I had a driveshaft that had been sitting for a while that had rust that looked worse than this on the yoke surface. After and overnight soak in "Rust 911" (Evaporust clone) it came out looking like new. I wouldn't want to use any kind of abrasive though. I think I should set up a fixture to soak them and then coat them with grease to prevent the rust from going any further. That will also allow me to do a closer inspection. They do look good to my casual eye now, though.
