Well, I guess I'll post my own followup. I solved the problem.

First the pin I had the problem with is called a "wrist pin". A fine gentelman named David Kulley saw my posting and gave me the correct name. Thanks David. Second, it is a "pressed" pin. When I say pressed, I DO stress PRESSED!!! It took a little over 20 tons (yep, that's 40,000 pounds on a bearing press) to get it to even budge. But, before pressing, you must ground off the back side of the pin. It looks almost flush, but it's not. It has been "peened" at the factory. Anyway, the new one ($20 from IH) presses back in easier (about 7 tons). You must still "re-peen" the back side.
