The pins are almost impossible to get a grip on. markB says they can be pushed through per the Rekeying Thread but I don't feel them moving yet.
Right now I'm soaking the pin portion in PB Blaster. Anyone figure out a better way to remove them ?? http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...c=66709&hl= Attached image(s)

They only push thru if the key is out. Try a small pair of nippers or wire cutters to pull on them.

I have the key out; I don't have a small enough tool to grab the pin. There's minimal clearance around the pin and my smallest needle nose pliers won't let me grip the pins edge....... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

I use a small drift pin punch and drive them both out from one side.

The drift did the trick- thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I assume the original roll pins can be reused ? Attached image(s)
