    Hey guys, this is a bit of a weird one but I somehow got my caliper slide pin stuck on when reassembling, I was able to break that too skinny piece of metal off thinking that would make it loose enough to come off but it won’t budge and I don’t have much leverage to hit it off from behind. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    I would suggest taking a punch, insert it into the half moon indentions and tap in the outward direction.
