Hello all! I'm currently in the process of restoring a Weber Genesis Silver B Grill. I acquired the grill for free and it was in pretty rough shape. I replaced most of the internals last year and the grill worked great. The Cookbox is the last piece that needs replacing. While attempting to disconnect the lid from the old cookbox I've run into a problem. The pins don't want to come out! I've removed the clips that make sure the pins don't accidentally slip out, but I cannot seem to remove them. It doesn't look like they are too badly rusted, and the lid still rotates just fine. I've tried using PB blaster, but it hasn't made a difference. I've used a flathead screw driver to try to pry the pins out. I've used a hammer to try to pry them out. I've used a hammer to try and pound them out, but they don't seem to want to move. Anyone else got any suggestions?
