A low speed crash in the wet necessitates replacement the riders right foot peg and bracket. This requires removal of the swingarm pivot bolt :-(

If I drive the pivot bolt out with a long, smaller diameter rod, will that keep the swing arm in place so that the operation becomes a "slip the damage peg/bracket off, slip the new one on and reinsert the pivot bolt?" Or, should I be loosening the bottom shock mount first? How/where should I support the frame it that is necessary?
