Your are going to have some fun. The factory press pin is a mutha to get out.
I broke a punch and then broke 3 drill bits.......ah the secret is the pin is tool steel and multi layered roll pin........start by drilling with a small bit and then move up in size to hollow the pin out. I ended up using a bit for boron steel and it ate the pin like it was paper. Then use a press or a inch vise to press the pin out and install the new one.
From grunge to better than new! I also installed a roller bearing on the throttle pedal clevis. Slick!
