Does anyone know what I can use for this ,shaft is 15/16. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 4,263 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 4,263 | The manual calls the clip a pin lock Part number 359380 ...click... You will have to do some research. But chevs of the 40s offers a similar clip for large truck brakes Part number 359380 ...link... This is not listed as the clutch/brake pin lock It may or may not work If someone has a brake/clutch pin lock removed maybe they can measure the o.d if its 1 3/16 its probably the same part? Otherwise maybe try a e clip | | | | | Joined: Sep 2013 Posts: 21 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Sep 2013 Posts: 21 | Going to give it a try .They said it won't work but number in manual and the measurement are the same.Thanks for tip I'll let you know | | | | | Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 1,644 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 1,644 | I just used a spring clip of the right size.It has been on there for 5 years no problems.Or they call them C clip also.
