My Stihl 14" hot saw would also be my choice also if a sledge didn't do the deed.
Even if the gap is widened a little from the saw blade a couple of washers would fill it.
And The new pin came drilled w/ a grease zerk on the end. So now it can be kept lubed.

Well I put it back together today. So far so good. It was lazy before and would drift down over the course about about 2 days. Hoping that issue is corrected. It was also leaking oil out the end pretty bad. Confident that is fixed.

Thanks again for all the help/ideas/conversation!

BBBBBut, did you get the pin out ????????? !!
Inquiring minds want to know.
No. I decided not to mess with it. Just left the rod attached and lowered the barrel back on with a chain hoist. Honestly went better than I thought it would.

I think if I need to get it out the 20 pound hammer plus the welded nut/impact would be the way to go though.

If you don t need a pin, drill a hole in it as wide as possible and then spray a freezer inside

Use biggest single flame torch you have. Heat center of the pin red hot, let it cool. Move to the other side, repeat.

i would drill for a 3/8 bolt in the center of the pin and make a puller for it a piece of pipe and washer would work great
