Reply:I"m not sure what the wear is like in that situation (it looks quite well braced, so probably not that bad...), but I have had places in ag equipment where I've started replacing them with roll pins because of the wear. I like to use the double rolled pins if I need them because it's easier to drive them out with a small punch if the extra roll keeps the punch from going through the center. That is some impressive looking work though.250 amp Miller DialArc AC/DC StickF-225 amp Forney AC Stick230 amp Sears AC StickLincoln 180C MIGVictor Medalist 350 O/ACut 50 PlasmaLes
Reply:There is not much side stress in this application guys.The cotter pin simply hold the 1-1/4"dia. pin from falling out.
Reply:Nice work Billy. Did you have to brace the sides? Sometimes, when you pull a gate, the sides usually flex out a bit, making installation difficult. I always used a com-a-long to tweak it back."Where's Stick man????????" - 7A749"SHHHHHH!!
