Removal of Pin in leaf spring?

95 yota P.U. 4x4..adding a leaf for a 2 inch lift from Toytec. Have everything removed and down to the pin which is in the center of the leaf spring. This pin has to be removed in order to add the extra leaf spring. No bolt head, no thread, no nothing..PB it but it wont budge..how does this pin come out..Toytec says to remove the Pin and discard it as they give you a new bolt to use in its place..but how to remove it is the question....thanx....G

You will probably have to grind the head off of the pin and drive it out with a hammer and punch. Then put it back together with the new hardware in the kit.

The nut should be on the bottom of the leaf pack. Mine was when I added a mini-pack.
