Hey guys does anyone know how to get the 2 pins that hold a shaft drive swingarm out?

I have the 3 bolt caps off and can see the pins I had assumed they would have a thread in them
So I could screw something in and pull them out, but nothing???????

I need this off ASAP as someone is coming to pick it up in 2 days.

The ones I've pulled, have a boot at the engine bevel gear that needs to be pulled back. Then there's a small band of spring steel around the coupling end, under that there is one pin in a hole. It just pushes in, as it has a spring under it. So I used a small pick, just a easy push in and it releases. Once it slides off of the splines you'll see how it attaches. I would turn the shaft so the hole for the pin faces upwards, so it can't fall out.

Sorry i see you mean the swingarm, probably the pivot pins. They come out after removing th bolts, and then I took a thin tipped pry bar to wedge in behind the flange. Once it moves a bit you can get in behind on each side and pry evenly, and out it should come.
