Brake Caliper Guide Pin: Stuck 900

I was servicing the front brakes on my '93 940 Turbo Wagon, and one of the lower Guide Pins is badly rusted, and stuck in the Caliper Carrier. I've been hitting it with penetrating fluid, heating with a torch, and striking with a hammer -- all to no availe.

The next logical move seems to be replace the caliper carrier all together.

Does anyone else have any thoughts/advice on the subject?

Thanks,

Jeff Pierce
