I used penetrating oil, a drift and various hammers, then a drill and a sawzall. What really got to me was how the pin had to be ordered. In speaking to mechanics, this isn't a particularly unique event, it happens fairly often, and Toyota doesn't stock them. Is their whole inventory filters, fluids, pads and wiper blades? The pins weren't included in the calipers that I looked at (hoping to get them to sell me one of them and order a replacement).
Actually I'm really just venting, I like the truck. But next time, if there are no pins in stock, I'll order 4 and pick them up with the brake pads, and return the ones I don't use.
