Its pissed. definitely not coming out. might try a few more tricks tomorrow. ive bent everything ive tried to hammer the pin out with. I might try some tooling steel or vanadium tomorrow.
Sounds like the same orange I use. It says Chevy Red-Orange. It looks just a hair darker than Chevy orange.

Yeah it looks dark without much light but its just the chevy orange engine paint from orielly. Ill snap a pic of the can. Works pretty good compared to some others ive used.
chevy red-orange is what Ryoken red is.. Mutt's color.... but obviously I'm getting it in a custom 2-part Nason form... it looked like Mutt's color, that's why I asked.. but with dark lighting it's understandable the reg chevy orange would look that way..
that's the color on those brackets I got from you right? Definitely a bright Chevy orange....

Because I'm a stubborn machinist lol. No I could get it out but I just don't have time. Gotta pull the axles to get the carrier out which means you end up doing seals and other junk. I wish stuff like this didn't end up being such a show stopper but I'll live. I took some measurements to make a jig after the trip that will bolt to the diff cover holes and have a jack screw to force the pin out because I'm lazy haha.
Decided i wanted a clamp for the hydro assist. Didnt want to pay for one so i made it. Probably still going to tack it on because it would be crappy if it slipped on the trail...

This thing is bitchin! I would like a bolt on one and maybe tack it on the ends to help prevent slipping but able to adjust alignment if needed
