I made a tool for a 2003 that worked. The 03's have a removable snap ring and a press fit single row bearing. That may be easier to get out than the '98, as a '98 may have a double row bearing with an internal wire snap ring requiring higher forces. Other members may correct me on that as I'm not 100% sure when the single row bearing became the rule. I also had the advantage of having the intermediate shaft on a bench. If I were dealing with a double row, I'd take more time to make a better all metal tool, or get one manufactured for the job.
