I seem to have a habit of snapping drive pins, and just use any pin that fits to replace it with.

Are there any supa dupa ones out? or any good ones?

links would be nice

I use the AE B4 roll pins in the front and back of my car. However only until Northy gets some nice solid ones made up, they will defo be the ticket to go for!

A fellow racer put an allen key which he cut to length, which worked (this was trackside mind). I managed to get some AE FT solid pins which are a smaller fit, (and a bit loose TBH) but do not break!! A dab of threadlock holds them in place.

Didn't know about them, being solid they'll be an improvement of those rollpins.

I quite often cut an allen key down and use that, as they are hardened and won't snap. But they are not a tight fit in the hole so don't go loosing them in long grass.
