I was able to push that pin out with a (big) vice and deep well socket that was just a little bigger inside than the pin. I read that it is possible to break that weld where the shaft and socket assembly are joined, so make sure there aren't any undue stresses on it when the pin is taken out. Thats sorta why I wanted to do it myself. I've screwed up my car fixing it a few times. "Professionals" have screwed up my car when fixing it several times.
