Sammy they are/were rusted.
The pin that gave me trouble wouldn't budge. Having had trouble before, I was not intentionally ham-fisted. PB Blaster and a punch worked for the 3 prior pins. The last pin was tight enough that it bent when trying to loosen it up by hitting the other end. Needing to use a drill and sawzall to change the pads was a drag, but the dealer not stocking a part like that (and knowing exactly what the issue was) really was not how I wanted to start today.
My technique and toolset may not be up to Toyota Tech standards, but this is the type of issue I'd expect from my Dodge.
