Alignment Pins

Does anyone know if it is possible to buy just the alignment pins that go on the steering coupler for my 81? I found new bolts and rag joint but need new pins. I already bought the rebuild kit but it was missing one pin and the other was the wrong size. TIA.

I didn't know the 'pins' could be seperated from the lower coupler. I don't see the pins in Dr. Rebuild's catalogue, but worth a call.

Alan,
I ground the top off a little and that allowed me to use a small brass punch and knock out the pins. I will make that call Monday, thanks.

Thanks. Now I understand why you're looking for them. Since the coupler and pins came as an assembly I don't think you'll find the pins separately. You'll probably need to buy a new or used lower coupler.

Alan
