Getting bent pivot-bars out?

[Nick]

I sort of bent my pivot bars real bad (that hold the arms to the bulks).

I wasn't clever enough before putting them in to buy new ones, I just hammerd them as straight as I could and had to use a hammer to tap (well smack) them in. :o

How do I get them back out? :rolleyes:

On the same violent way as you got them in, only using a small piece of hardened steel, i don't know how you guys call it though..

somehow it isn't a surprise Nick...........................

annoying reminder

I can tell I'm going to get angry doing this but my fault putting them in, lol... if only I bought new ones but I didn't know they were bent until I got them out of the stock bulks.

Hardened steel? Like a chisel?

I mean a long pin of hardened steel, with a flat head.. (the pin) Be patiend with it.. It will come out. A lott of small hits with the hammer are better than a few hard ones..

If you want to sacrifice the pins, and if they are visible between the bulkhead, just cut the pin in half, should make it a bit easier. I don't know if this works with your bulkheads, though.
