I've tried everything in my arsenal but can't get the lower pin to move. 1999 johnson 40 hp. I just want the unit out of there so if I have to sacrifice the side brackets that's fine by me. Question is the corrosion that makes these stuck in the area where the pin passes through the mounting brackets or deeper in the trim unit? Can I just cut away the mounting brackets to reveal the pin?
