drivers side driveshaft...
have to get the tripod joint off the shaft to be able to put new gaiter on but as indicated by the red arrows the end of the shaft appears to have been keyed in rather harshly and therefore i cannot get it off...even with a puller....
any suggestions?

you don't.
To be fair this gaiter never usually needs replaced. I need one for the hatch engine/box right enough. |
