How-to clean bell cranks (ebrake stick fix)

I let the rusty ones sit over night in cleaner. I got them working today! I still might get new ones but I'll wait until spring.

 

First I have never been able to get the pins out of the bell crank bracket

I Just buy new bell crank brackets cut the old ones apart clean up the bell crank on a wire wheel new pin good to go.


Then most times till I get them they have been seized for some time.
