Default pin holding on front hex not coming off.

I have the old durango dex410R (not v3)

I used thread lock to secure the pins in place as durango mentioned in the manual so the pins wont fall out when your putting on your wheel.

but it seems my pins dont want to come off as I want to do some work on my bearings and to heat shrink my shafts.

I managed to get the rear ones out as they are exposed a bit so I could use some vice grips to get them out. but the front ones are not exposed at all as they are sitting in the hex.

I have tried tapping them out with a small pin and hammer but it just dose not work.

Dose anyone have some suggestions?

Take the pins you have already got out and use them to knock the stuck ones out with..

I heat mine up and push them out with one side of a pair of needle nose pliers.
