Welcome to the site Fast one. Lots of possibilities for a somewhat "easy" removal. You can use Archimedes Law of the Lever principle to remove excess stress on the linkage and pins. A piece of wood and a crowbar or breaker bar can be used and adjust the fulcrum as needed to ease your lift, depending on what you have on hand. use a smaller wedge piece of wood to hold it in place while you remove the pins. You can use ratchet straps over your rafters or a very sturdy tree limb to lift the front wheels high enough to slide the deck forward and out from under the cub. There are other ways, as well, using a come along or engine hoist or jack or mower lift, etc. are possible. As always, practice safety first and chock the rear tires before raising the front of your cub, use a support system to hold the position of your cub if you are suspending it and some good common sense.
