Kraton Help me get the wheel pin out

[Akandesh]

So I've been trying to change the bearings to sealed ones and 3 wheels went super easy then the last one I had the famous issue where the small screw was super stuck so applied a bunch of heat and got it out fairly easily but the issue is that the pin doesn't move one bit. I've tried hammering on it with a small tool and heating it up with a soldering iron directly etc and nothing has worked so far. Any ideas?

Some superglue dissolving solvent like acetone and/or a bit of wd40 in case it has rusted into place?

Been there, i heated it then smashed a nail lunch through it.

Prop it up underneath the hex really well maybe even put some nuts on the hex so you don’t scar the threads! Then take either a small nail, or punch that fits on the pin and use a hammer to tappity tap it out. “BE PERSUASIVE” I’ve had luck with a 1.5mm hex driver and a hammer and a little heat right before smackin the crap out of it.

Vice, Heat, 2mm Punch/Drift, and finally large hammer..

Hmm, might have to remove the whole piece then bring it to my parents garage so I can properly hold it still then give it some heavy hammering.

I think all hope may be lost.

Finally got it off, removed the entire hub then firmly held it in place with a clamp tool and gave it a few hits with a nail and it finally came out!
