John, since I didn't have the right tools (strength?) to re-torque the axle nut back on (it's something like 200 ft lbs), I just removed the five pins. There are two types of pins, the older allen type (12mm) and the newer torq type. Yup, I ended up buying both sockets to accommodate each (a specialty tool that runs about $20 each via Internet tool sites). The only problem with removing the pins is that you need to re-align them using a special steel template from Trigo. Yeah, I have that, too....I like to collect cool tools that I only use maybe once a year (
) , but they are nice to have when you need them.
