I popped the roll pin out of the clutch arm. Soaked it, hammered it, stuck it in a vise and muscled it, no budge. What's the trick?

Trying to get everything that needs to go thru the new sand blast cabinet done so I can get it moved from the driveway, so gave it another shot. Guess it soaked long enough or it just needed to be under 100f outside (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Now I can finally put it in the pile to powder coat (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

The clutch shaft looks like it is some what under size from the rust eating it. You can build them up with JB Weld and smooth it out. As it it might make for extra wobble in the pedals.
I am going to soon be making new clutch shafts with ball bearings to replace the bushings which wear through even if the bronze ones are used. Half of the ones I see are like or worse then yours.
