Ok guys I got all but two HLA's out to bleed. Now while trying with all my might to pull the damn thing out the fucker came apart leaving just the case within the head. How do I get this out? All I have to grab on to is a tiny lip and I have tried pliers to no end. If anyone knows a special way tell me.

owe, you need to be careful and not score the shit out of the head.

Keep at it with some fine good quality needle nose plyers (go get some baller shit if you have to).

use lots of wd-40 (belt dressing seems to have the same effect if you have that layin around) try to twist it out gently. People will probably try to scare tactic you into "oh your going to ruin the journal or ruin the head" just keep at it and take your time.

can you get it budget side to side? at all?

No it won't budge. I will try WD40 but it is really in there. I really have no idea how to get it out.

can you grab it with vice grips?

If your totally sol, pull the head, the machine shop will have a way to get it out.
