With a three pound sldge and an old king pin the old guide mounts come out of the bearing bracket cleanly. It only takes a few solid whacks. Just be sure not to hit your hand while steadying the king pin.

An old king pins makes an excellent large utility punch. Anyone with an old straight axle truck probably has a couple laying around. I also have a large brass drift that I use when there is worry of marring or sparking.
