I gently tapped mine out with a driver (a small diameter punch) when it was time to replace mine.  I then just took it down to a hardware store and bought an equivalent size rollpin from their hardware section.  It's fairly common hardware.

If you bought extra pins could you please measure it for us, so we know what to buy.
Mine looks a little rusted.

I used a 1.5" because that's all they had at the speed shop at Buttonwillow at time of failure. It turns out that it's easier to manipulate and they clear so that's the size I bought at the hardware store for spares.

In a pinch you could use the new pin to drive out the old and presto chango your done.. biggest problem is getting wacking room..
