Which direction should I go?

Not sure if I should drive it from the other side that is already pinched

It looks like it's starting to come out but I can't drive it any further should I drive it back the other way?

Is that the coupler for the steering?
If so put a little penetrateing lube on it and drive it back then out. Make sure your driver isn't to large for the hole.

I don't remember them only going in or out from one side. Drive it back and forth until you get it free....

👌 I'll give that a try...Thanks for the tip...

It should be just a roll pin and Not a wedge pin.... It should come out ether way....

To me it looks like the role pin driver is to large for the hole in the shaft.

I have a different driver that I've been using a 5/16... I live in an RV park & the neighbors👎 complained about the noise from me banging on it! so I gotta find another place to work on it... What sucks is that I already removed the pitman arm off the steering gear & now I gotta put it back on so I can move the truck

Removing that roll pin should not be that big of a deal get out a quarter inch driver and knock it out. Gets a replacement roll pin is no problem.
