I think there are more detailed explanations in the
archives, but here is what i did:

Find a threaded rod that will fit through the inside
of the pin and a washer really close (but not greater
than) the diameter of the pin.  Also, get a tube the
pin can fit inside, and yet another washer that can
not slip inside the tube.

I hope you see where i am going with this...

nut-big washer-tube-piston w/pin inside-little
washer-nut-locknut.  All that skewered by that
threaded rod.  I ended up kind of shaping the piston
end of the tube to fit the piston more closely and not
marr the sliding surface (basically press against the
recess in the piston around the pin).

A little time spent making this tool will save you a
lot of time extracting pins.  It doesn't really help
you reinstall them, though.

Honestly, i had a bigger hassle with the retaining
clips, but i guess you develop a "feel" for it after
clip #3.

Good luck,
-Damon
