Dremel tool. AFAIK that is the only way to get it off. The down side is that it is permanent :-( <BR> <BR>Trash

Well, I took the pylon off of my 83 2001. <BR>I've heard that either it comes off easy or it doesn't come off at all. <BR>Here's how I did it. <BR> <BR>1. Spray liquid wrench around the ring. (use a rag to catch the overspray). <BR>2. Wait a day. <BR>3. Repeat step one. <BR>4. Wait another day. <BR>5. Drive both pins all of the way out. I used a 1/4" drift punch if I remember right. <BR>6. I took a 3 foot oak dowel that I had laying around and put it through the ring and gave it a good twist. I twisted it and lifted at the same time. Mine turned easy. If it doesnt move then you might have to cut it off. <BR> <BR>Mark
