    You bought your pin from these same guys?

    I just burnt the top plastic mushroom. If you heated it up and pushed it back on it would work fine

    Until I can get the release pin for a LOT LESS than $25, here’s my cheap-ass temporary solution:

    3/8” x 3” bolt from my nuts and bolts coffee can. Re-used pin spring and then added the 3/8” nut to retain the entire assembly in the sleeve.

    Works like a charm.

    This is what happens when you are a dumbass and drive off without securing the swingout.

    You shear the pin.

    Yeah. I’d probably get a more corrosion proof nut and bolt though.

    This regular zinc nut and bolt isn’t gonna last half the winter here in NY
