Patrick,

For the window cranks I've found that a welding rod (3/32" - 1/8") works well
to push the old pin out.  During reassembly use the same rod, score it with a
hacksaw about a 1/2" from one end.  after pushing the rod into the crank hole,
break it off at the score mark.  No hunting for old pins and it makes the job
of removal/reassembly a cinch! 

Thanks,
Paul Mostrom
