Hey folks - As you can see from the picture, I lost whatever washer and pin that it retained it. Not having a lot of luck finding what I need online, probably because I don't now exactly what they're called. As you know, the actual pin shown is welded from behind. Any leads for this?

 Here’s what it looks like. The thing circled in red in front of the big nut. Don’t know what it is called. If you can’t find one, you could get a large castle nut drill it to fit the pin. Might have to cut it thinner. ------------- '41 Allis B '49 Farmall Cub |

| Interesting. Mine is a pin, no threads, welded from the back side. It must have been a castle washer of some sort and a pin or cotter key. |

| I'd stack some washers to remove play and use a big cotter pin. |

As Steve said……enough washers to take up the slop and a big cotter pin. I have seen them held on with a bent 20d common nail. Yours doesn’t seem to be worn enough to need a new pin and rebuilding the hole in the axle. ------------- Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God. |
