Need a part number for the bitch pin and c clip that holds it in..
Stupid dude at parts dealer couldnt find it...

 

I've always wondered it there was some way to just substitute it for a nut & bolt, but i'm usually thinking that as i'm trying to get it off...

sweet got it

 

spending $25 on the correct matco tool to get that thing in and out was one of the biggest time savers i've ever had. that pin is insane without one.

 

Kinda funny you say bitch pin and everyone knows which pin your talking about!! Lol. **** that thing.

 

i took one out on a dseires the other day with a 1/4 inch drive extension.. worked perfect..

 

hey on g2ic.com they have a diy

 

Yep. I had the "bitch pin" problem twice. Once on my old DA, and once on my DC. Never again, thanks to a tap & die set. ;-)

 

It's really not that hard to get out at all. I use a punch and a hammer. Comes right out with no problems every time. You can also buy the pin at a hardware store. It's just a compression pin.

 

I'm sure you could and I believe i've seen it done before, but you will feel slack in the linkage. Nothing is going to fit it better than the pin.

A lot of people don't know this, but you can take the spare tire bolt out.. it kinda has a cone shaped end on it.. Use a 4lb hammer and I usually hit it 3-4 times and it's out. A lot of people have little qwerks and special things they use for certain things.. That's one of mine because it works perfect.

 

can you link me to the tool please, i wanna make my life easier lol

you can also call to see if a local truck is around and pick it up near by

 

thanks for that, heading to my local truck in a bit

 

I use a 1/4" short extension, and slip a deep socket over the bottom of it, one that is just wide enough to fit but not have any play. Then use the 4lb... works like a mini impact tool, and transfers the energy pretty good. comes right out.

 

Pretty sure that the four bolts holding the a/c compressor on are what work wonders also.

I mean .. you have four of them, might as well make use of one anyways lol.

 

Yeah man, that's what I meant to say.. I dunno what the hell i was thinking with the spare tire bolt. Lol.
