[R-390] Pinned Down - advice needed

Very interesting suggestion.  I have about three different jaw styles on my
various vice grips. Given the very limited operating room to get at these
little pins, I'm not sure even my smallest vice grips could be maneuvered in
there.  

After I get a new Gorilla off my back (a few days), I'll get back direct to
you to explore your idea in more detail.

Since there are a few of us pursuing a solution to this, I will be posting
close ups of the entire PTO gear box mechanism which will provide better
views of this contraption and hopefully fertilize additional ideas.

Thanks,

Chris,

You may want to get your self a pair of vise grip pliers.

Set the up in the drill press and drill a very small hole in one jaw.

Into the small hole you would like to insert a short length of the drill bit
you used to drill that hole.

You now have a pin in a pair of pliers you could use to work the roll pin
out of the collar and shaft.

You could pull a small bench vise apart and drill a hole in it Some thing to
make up a small press.
