well guys, as you have probably guessed, i was not as lucky as i thought i was going to be. i did have to remove the bed steps to get the leaf pin out.
yesterday when i took the lock pin out and hit it at that end with the brass drift, i was thinking it would push out through the inside, toward the center of the truck. i didnt realize the pin is too long to go out that way, and found out the hard way it has to come out the other way, and had to take the steps off.
the leafs are now off and and will continue to work on it each night.
