That is probably your problem right there...
Grind that pin off even with whatever it's going through. Then knock it out!
Sears has the punches you need a set of 5 (I believe) for about 20 bucks. These are just "manual" punches, not air hammer punches.
I drilled a 3/8" hole down the center of a 3/4" grade 8 bolt (bolt about 10" long) to use as an extension for the punch. It works GREAT, you can
REALLY smack the head of that bolt! I was even surprised at how well it works.
THE ONLY OTHER THING I CAN THINK OF IS, that pin could be partly sheared in its hole, if it is sheared very much, you
will not drive it out
