Rudder Raising Clevis Pin (C26)

Post by tgentry »

The clevis pin that the rudder raising line wraps around was badly bent. It seems to be a 1/4" x 1 3/4". I haven't been able to find one so far, although I straightened mine out enough to use for now.

Does anyone have a supplier for these?

Are they a weak link and should I consider fitting a larger pin? 5/16" x 1 3/4" are widely available and perhaps the extra strength would be helpful. Any clearance issues?
