Embodiments of the present application relate generally to provisional orthopedic components, and specifically and to a trial system including a cam module (10) and a trial femoral component (100) that can be used during joint replacement surgery. The systems and methods described help a surgeon prepare a patients bone to receive a permanent implant by providing a system that can be used to guide preparatory box cuts and that can then be completed with a cam module (10) &mdash without removal from the patients bone&mdash so that the same component can be used for the trialing process.
