[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 31606, member: 82"] I had the same problem with an 02 753G. The pins would not move. I heated up with an oxy torch but still refused to move. I had to cut the bucket off and remove the bobtach, i tried heating and hitting with a sledge.... BAD IDEA. I didn't know the pins are hardened. A piece flew off and hit me in the knee, the metal lodged in there, it came out with a strong magnet thankfully. You're not going to like it, but the way i fixed it was to cut the bosses out and make new ones. You *may* have success if you can remove the bucket and bobtach so you can strike the pins with a copper hammer. Another way i felt may work was to run a cut down the length of the boss with a thin cut off blade and see if that releases the stuck pin. Good luck with it! i have been there and know your pain.
