    Put the bolt back in a couple of turns and gently tap it out from that side. Also gently move the swingarm up and down a bit so there is momentary looseness in the setup. They can be a bit tight in the hole in the seatstay. You could also pull the seatstay towards you a little bit

    Check the instructions, I know on an old yeti the pin didn’t come out but it was actually a bolt on each side. I doubt that’s the case now but worth checking before you go mad with the hammer 😀

    I find a long threaded bolt is useful for those yeti pins…thread it into one side of pin and tap the pin through using the bolt…the loose fitting bolt takes the place of the pin in the assembly so everything doesn’t fall apart as you tap the tight pin out the other side.

    Also useful for threading back together (although there used to be a ‘fox’ guide tool for this as well)… at least on my 575.

    Sorted. Don’t strip the thread, they’re titanium and cost a fortune!
