Roll pins for 511/501??

[MHeadling]

Hi chaps, does any one know where to get roll pins for the wheel drives on a 501/511??

I have tried Cat ones but they are too small, so to are AE ones.

Would be a good part for it as the STD kit silver ones drop out when you take a wheel off.

In the uk I'd try demon/brock/fusion, they are 2mm thick I think, and either 9.4mm or 10mm long, maybe even try Nortech?

Oh, and to stop them falling out, I use loctite on the pin!

I think the UJ pins work (in the rebuild kit part 53500), Northy is selling some!!

I found some on eBay; 10 for £2 including postage. They do the job. As stated, 2mm by 10mm.

Was going to say, dip it in the AW grease before putting the pin through the axle, holds it in place good and proper...

Actually you can just use shims. Be careful, just enough to hold the pin, not so much that it binds.

;);) (I use shims aswell, helps eliminant the wheel rocking around, seems to run alot truer)
