From my experience, there is a correlation between not removing the pins and drill tranny failure. Removing the pins is very simple, you just turn the top 1/2 of the transmission and it comes apart one stage above the planetary gears. We destroyed a transmission last year by not removing our pins, and after that we removed every pin from the transmissions. Removing these pins help prevent transmission failure.
