You've found the down side of grade 8s, they break suddenly.

I'd also heat the hangers red hot in the area of the pins. Won't hurt any heat treatment, the hangers are malleable iron, not steel.

I've gotten all mine out by threading pipe threads on the head end of a cut off bolt and screwing it into the zerk hole. Then use the longer bolt threads and a deep socket as a puller. Your frame is a severe rust case, I think you need the heat of an acetylene torch.
