lots of wd40, brute force then get new ones.. maybe even snap the top off and use the right size nail punch and punch it through.

As Paul said, WD40 and lots of brute force. The same thing happened to me sort of, well it was stuck in ridiculousley tight anyway. But i ended up using a vice, a hammer, and a blunt object of some description. Then once it was half-way out i use the vice to hold the pin, then I got another vice to hold the rest. Then i gave it a few good old wacks with another blunt object and that seemed to dot he trick.

WD40, and then a pair of pliers over the axel to push it through.

there is two style of AE pins you can have the FT eazy fit ones and the old or stelth ones

the FT pins are the same width both ends where as old/ stelth pins have a thicker end one side and are a bitch to get out.
