If removing the right side inner tripod joint, position the punch against the inner tripod joint. Strike the punch sharply with a hammer to dislodge the right inner joint from the side gear. If removing the left side inner tripod joint, position the punch in the groove of the inner tripod joint. Strike the punch sharply with a hammer to dislodge the left inner tripod joint from the side gear. -------------------- You must be fast, cause I was haullin ass when I passed you.
