that stupid bitch pin

so i recently got my axles out yesterday and need to get the shift linkage off in order to drop out the tranny, well ive been under my EF beating the sh!t out of that pin with a punch and a hammer and i wont even budge. the previous owner thought he knew everything so wen he had to take the other dual point  out do to it being locked up he didnt take the pin out, instead he took the whole shift linkage out possibly bending it Crying or Very sad. my question to all of you is are there any other ways tips tricks or solutions to get this pin out. like i said it wont budge for anything........please help Very Happy
whoa its len 2

I just take the bolt from the stabalizer bar and use it as a punch. Its the perfect size to hammer the bitch pin out. Never had a problem unlike everyone else lol.

mann the bitch pin is a bitch thats all there is to it. You just have to keep working it with the punch.

Or remove the two bolts that hold the shift linkage to the chassis and call it good. should be 2 12mm bolts

I use a nice custom heavy hammer made out of steel and one of the exhaust screws. With a couple of hard hits it's out with no problems. good luck...

Funny how everyone calls it a bitch pin.  I have taken them out numerous times on different cars, and never have had a problem.

the bitch pin i used the hole punch thing didnt work too. i got fed up so i drilled it out. after that i used a small bolt with a adjustable hose clamp to replace the bitch pin incase that bolt comes out. i spent hours trying to take that bitch out. like they say disconnect it from the tranny and shift linkage. good luck

I use a hammer and a bolt, works fine, there is also another way of using a clamp, a socket, and an allen head bit.
