Good morning to you all hope all is well. Can someone please tell me how the heck to get the front axle pivot pin out of a 230 with the swept back frontend please? My manual shows that it has a snap ring on the front and back of it. I've cleaned it real good and took a small pick and went around the pin to get the gunk out of there and I don't see any snap rings anywhere but when I hit it with a block and hammer you can tell something is holding it. I removed the wedge pin with the nut so its not that. When I move the assembly around it appears that the bushings are worn and the pin moves around so it's not in a bind but something has it and I don't want to break something. This is on the 230 I'm rebuilding the engine on and have asked for your help on that and I really appreciate the time that you guys take to share your knowledge with others. Thanks.
