Pins.....
Thanks Wayne
The one shop asking for $45 per pin intends to use induction hardened stock....... I get your point about wear rate...after all it took them 64 years to wear down... with plenty of grease I should make mine last for a while.....LOL
On my truck the pins are particularly worn in the area of the eye of the leaf spring.... the spring bushings are a bit oval but not cut to the leaf springs as I have seen on other trucks.... and the spring shop that will re-arc the springs will replace the bushings with new ones and ream them out to size of the new pins.....
This weekend will be spent hunting for salvageable pins from my other truck frames....... then I will decide how many to have made.
