The rear pivot pin on my 1959 gas D 17 wide front fell out at some point. I was backing into my shop and the rear part of the front axle fell down. I bought a new one at my local shop and it turns out that it was for the higher serial number. He was able to find one that’s going to work in his old stock trailer. The later series shoulder bolt and castle nut made sense. I’m not sure what’s supposed to hold this thing in. Does anybody have any experience with installing one of these? It seems like I probably need to take the front plate off and slide it through the axle and the back plate and then bolt the front plate back on.
