Default TRS Trim Anchor Pin Help

I am trying to remove the tie bar saddles on my TRS drive because I am going to full hydraulic steering and using the tie bar up high. I can't seem to get the trim ram anchor pins out to save my live. Any ideas?


Thanks

I assume you soaked them in WD-40. They can be a problem if they haven't been removed in a while. I usually bang them out using a brass drift. Put a nut on the threads do you don't mess them up.

These?? Maybe put some penetrant (PB Blaster) on them and let them soak over night.

Those would be the ones. I have been letting them soak. I will keep at it.

Thanks

I have also double nutted them and spun them to loosen them and spin them out. Also wood and a hammer, do not hit the threads.
