The pin has to be out to remove the c clips , I suspect he can't get the pin out ... Last time this happened to me I got a very large hammer and a brass drift and beat it INTO THE CARRIER ,(otherwise you run the risk of the carrier breaking out at the pin) bout 10 big whacks and the lockpin sheared ..Then it was no big deal to remove the remains of the lock pin and crosspin and replaced it with a new one ...
