Rob are you referring to the pins in the hangers which have zerk fittings? My B1C uses the same hangers so this procedure might work. For the back ones remove the zerk and locking bolt. You should find an access hole on the inside of the frame. Use a brass drift to drive the pin out from the center of the truck. With the zerk out the pin will just clear the body and fall out. For the front one, should be a lube access hole to the zerk. Remove the zerk, thread in a bolt that extends past the bed skin. Remove the locking pin. Using a slide hammer give the bolt in the zerk hole a couple slaps and it will pop out. BTW, make sure you have everything up on jack stands securely. My fingernail has finally grown back in where one spring hit as it fell out of the hanger. Really hurt !
