You didn't see any hints in the manual?

Doesn't the manual say there is some "special" drift for this?
Re: dodge m37 knuckle bearings
The manual says lots of things but I tend to use what I have available at the time, and the mallet and an old socket was perfect !!pwrwagonfire wrote:M37UK wrote:I used a plastic mallet to hammer mine on.
