Axle pins

[austexk5]

I finally got my rig out for the first time and managed to break my right front axle pin in the cv. Are these 2x12mm? I could only find 2x11mm at my LHS. Not ready to totally upgrade them...yet.

I don’t recall size atm but they are same as body post height adjustment screw pins. Parts number VTR246001. Only one I’ve broken was over tight with lots of blue loctite applied and tightened by me. Broke the hex area out trying to remove it. Tiny bit of loctite and just snug is good.

Actually, it was the pin behind that one. The one in the CV joint.

Sorry, I should have read closer, your thread title threw me off, somebody's thread here fit a slightly larger pin and then ground the end a little. I don't remember who though.

No problem, I actually need that pin to, I lost a body post pin as I didn’t tighten them. Thanks!
