Like with everything you spend a long time trying everything with no success. I got to the point where the reccomendation was to take it back to the shop he bought it have and have them file a warranty claim because these are known to fail and when they fail in a low gear that end jams the mech.
The end was well jammed.
But.
I got it out.
I win. So much futzing, but no blood and I don't think anything is too worse for the wear. Luckily (maybe) the set screw for the pivot was rusted in place or maybe i might have had more of a challenge getting it all back together.

I made the mistake once of disassembling shifter to extract cable pieces. That was years ago and I still probably have a box of a hundred pieces laying around somewhere. Now I replace the rear der cable every time I replace chain/drivetrain. Sucks to loose shifting on a ride, sucks even more to lose a shifter. Hasn't happened since.
