The correct roll pin is available from Porsche or Pelican.
Cost , about $1. Plus shipping...might be easier to get it from a Local Porsche dealer. You cannot use the "C" roll pins from a flaps because they are not strong enough. I did successfully put a small C roll pin inside another and pound this into the hole and that did work. Then I found out that the roll pin is cheap. |

I used the standard "C". It is shifting excellent right now. Do you think the standard will be strong enough for a couple of weeks until I order one?? I start school next monday...and I work on the weekends! |

I just ordered one from my AA dealer. I hope the regular C will last a couple weeks. |

I could of swore that somebody posted they successfully doubled up some pins??? Did somebody delete there post or am I going crazy??
Anyway...I doubled up two normal "C" pins, to my surprise it went in just fine. I am hoping the pins are just as strong??? Has anyone done this successfully? Works great right now. I have distinct areas/gates for each gear!!! At the most it has 3" of slop...not bad from when I started. I was completly undrivable when I bought it. |

Yes, I posted that. I put a small c inside a bigger c and it worked for a year. Then I converted to sideshift and it makes no difference now...
And someone wants the end peice of my tail shift 6 and I can't get the C pins out now. Broke 2 tools trying to drive them out! Dr. Evil was there. The single C lasted a couple of days and I then had to change the thing in the parking lot at work... James |

James I am glad I took the time to double them up (small c in bigger c). Hopefully mine will be good and strong to. I do have the others ordered as well. Thankyou guys!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rocking nana.gif) In a couple of days I will post some pictures of my success with this little car. I was only able to do it because of you guys helping. Thankyou!
