I'm replacing the bell crank in my MB as the remains of the needle bearings
are all crumbled up. There is so much rust in the hole for the taper lock
pin that I cannot see which end is the small one hence I don't know which
way it is supposed to be driven out. I have been pounding both ways with a
punch but nothing moves. My next plan is to heat the casting red then try
beating the taper pin out. Problem is, at that point I'd really like to
know which direction I am supposed to be going. Was there a standard
direction that those little taper pins were put in at the factory?

Thanks,

je
