Steering Column Repair: removing bearing housing, chev blazer, side cutters

Question
Your videos are awesome. Being a female trying to fix my car I usually get vague answers and encouragement to take it somewhere. I have 1989 Chev Blazer and I need to know what is the special puller to remove the pivot pins. I am stuck here. Can I use a grade 8 bolt and nut? Where do I get this tool if necessary?

Answer
Hi Robyn:
Thanks for the compliment on the videos. They have helped a lot of people.

You can use a screw and then with side cutters, pry it out.  The only caution is that if the screw breaks off, you're screwed.
Here is a link to the stores that sell the GM pivot pin puller (Sears is one of them and they are the cheapest @ $9.99)

Good luck
