nope the pin is machined in and very hard to get out, you will have to remove the whole piece from the truck, it has a connector at the top too!

I gave it a try yesterday. The splined post is not going to come out without a fight, and certainly not without taking the entire pedal off. I'll save it for another day when I'm ready for a fight.

That is one I will offer up in the Corvette clubs I'm in but its a tough sell for that year.

Exactly right and my mechanic changed out the whole thing in ten mins. I'll ask him his technique...

It's easier to remove the pedal assembly. Less of a project.

Hope the instructions are clear enough to help.
