Oversize Clevis Pins

[Steve Schmauch]

I use an "R" size drill bit (0.340") to drill worn clevis pin holes, then I use thin-walled brass or steel tubing (brake lines material) with at 0.340" OD and 0.310" ID to bush them back to standard size. That way you do not have to drill out those original clevis holes that are still good, and you end up with all standard sized clevis pins, which in my opinion look better than the oversize ones, for those interested in authenticity (see post #3).
