It won't come out but it slides clear to the edge of the rocker. My fear is it will keep working it's way out and then I have a failure. The other 14 don't move at all. I don't see any clips so I am assuming it is a press fit so would it be possible to repair them?? Maybe install a bigger pin or a longer pin then use a clip to hold it in?? Or just bite the bullet and get some new ones unless I find some good used ones. What do you engine guys think???? Thanks guys, David

PS they rebuild them back to good as new and if one is not rebuildable they will tell you and you can buy a new one. "To Be The Man'You Have Got To Beat The Man" "T/D and Pro-Bracket Racer"

I called Crane and they basically told me that they were past their duty cycle and there was nothing they would do for me. If the MODS did their job I would not be hitting the notify MOD button. LOL
