I would first try an air chisel with a point tip. Hit it once quick and hard. If the pin doesnt budge get a giant C clamp and put a socket on the fixed end to press the pin into. Tighten it up as much as you can. Heat the crap out of the housing with a propane torch and rap the end of the threaded end of the C clamp, qiuck and hard with a 5 pound dead blow hammer .
If it still wont budge drill out the ends of the pin on each side progressively larger until it falls out

Tons of info on Google" etec lower trim pin removal"

First off, I will Google it thanks..

My machinist here at work loaned me his air hammer (chisel I guess) it has a flat end or point end. My compressor is probably too small to deliver enough air so my son's friend works for an garage/autobody shop, and has a tow truck with a big compressor and he can come by and we'll try it again. Shes not on the trailer and I want to do it in the yard.

If no -go..once I'm back on the trailer, I will bring her to my work where I have a full machine shop and BIG compressor we have some flywheel pullers, but the C clamp may fit better . Until I do it, I will keep soaking with PB blaster and I'll try some heat.

Ronny: I really want to stay away from cutting, but as a last resort it's probably the only way to go.

Thanks guys !!!!!!!

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.
