Armrest Removal
 

I must be losing it, because what looked like the easiest thing in the world to do in the shop manual had me about to bring out the sawz-all. I'm trying to remove the drivers arm rest so i can fold the 60% part of the back seat down, it hits the arm rest since I'm tall and sit all the way back. I remove the cap and remove the bolt, but not matter how hard i pull on the dang thing it refuses to come out. Is there a special process to getting these armrests to release from the pin their rotating on? Thanks.

No it should slide right off.

Don't use the sawzall! It should slide off the splines with a little persuasion and persistence.

Rubber mallet perhaps?

I am stealing the Chuck Norris stamp. So great

Dang it. Have no idea why it won't come off. I'm 6'4" and 250lbs and I can't pull the sucker off to save my life.

Ah so it slides out through a slot. Thanks for the pics, that's a huge help
