Those pins are pretty hard. Usually the weld doesnt stick to it as well as the link. Grind off the weld on one side and smack it with a sledge square on the opposite side, just dont mushroom it. That will usually break the remaining weld loose as long as the side you are hitting protrudes from the link a little. If they are welded in that usually means they are loose, so they dont usually come out too bad, especially on links that small. On a machine with a 2 inch pin it could mean trouble though. Another handy thing for track pins is a pin hammer, an L shaped piece of 1 1/4" or so sized rod. Long end of the L is the handle, about 3' long, and short end of the L is about 16" or so and you hold the end against the pin and smack the end where it is welded to the handle with a short handled sledge, saves hands and fingers. Watch out for shrapnel if you dont hit pin square. Ross
