rear spring pivot

[1929 AA boy]

im sure this has been talked about before and im not the only one with this issue... the pivot points on one of my AAs springs is so wore out that I don't think theirs any coming back from it do they make reproduction piviot shafts or do I need to fab something up

[Reds34]

I don't think that anyone reproduces the pivot pins. I think what most people do is weld them up and grind/machine them down or try to find good used ones.

My pivots were worn on the bottom, so I welded on the pivots in the worn areas and am now grinding/fileing them back to
round. Using calipers to get em close. See pictures, Mac.......

Somebody here made a tool to recut the pivot shaft to make it round agagin.

Yup: I just finished welding up one of mine. Filed it round, used a peice of sheet metal with a hole the corect size in it to find the high spots and filed away. Dose not have to be exactly round as it only "rocks" back and forth a few degrees. I used 6013 rod and then coated it with "slip plate" before assembly.

Start welding and it will work out fine...
