TVH 0 Posted December 5, 2006 (edited) cheers , is there a special metal they should be made of , or will any do?pete Any will do except aluminium. I replaced the pin with a M8 bolt when the pin got lost while driving back home. I just don't understand why the pin has to be a separate item not solid with the arm.

Rob_the_Sparky 9 Posted December 5, 2006 If you can, drill a small hole through it. Then use some welding wire through this and attached to something else to stop it falling off the car. Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob i might well do that , as i am getting and engineer at work to do his magic on the lathe. i didn't loose it whilst it was on the car though it was when i took the gearbox out , its probably in a box burried in the garage somewhere . but i suppose if the cable snaps then the pin is gonna fall out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
