I located an oil leak in my transmission coming from behind the control lever. Looking at the parts diagram there are a couple o-rings behind the control lever and 2 pins that hold the control lever on transmission housing. Any help on how to remove those pins to free the control lever so i can get to the o-rings to replace them? Also hoping I can do this without dropping the transmission. Any advice or has anyone had this problem before that can give me some pointers?

Sorry most likely the unit needs to come out then you can use a roll pin punch and hammer to get the pins out.
