Are you saying you are trying to get the pins out with the brackets still on the truck? if so then that will not work. But if you take them off spray them with some PB blaster (or similar product NOT WD40! wont work) and let them sit for a little while then hammer them, they should come right out. Use a nail punch or socket extension to hammer it the rest of the way out.
