I think I remember my old auto shop teacher saying we could use any softer metal pin to make shear pics but I want to bounce it off of y'all before doing something stupid.
Unless someone has then in the East Bay Area, CA..... Then I'll be glad to buy 'em off of you. Yes, EASY is closed today. =-) Roger |

Thanks for the suggestions. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
I ended up going to HOME DEPOT and getting a little piece of rod. (awaiting the Trekkor jokes...) EASY will be open on Monday. I lost the little suckers when my CV bolts came free while driving. That was a tough lesson. I spoke with Patrick Motorsports and they said they give the threads a food grade cleaning beforehand, then use loc-tite on their race car. No failures. Previously I assembled with a quick swipe of a paper towel to clean the threads. Never doing that again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) |
