Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Tim

Someone should be able to dig one out for you if you post in the parts wanted forum.
A C-clip of the correct size would work better than the original clip.

I'm not sure a C-clip would work, but it might. I don't recall exactly what the end of the shaft looks like, but the "Pin Lock" is weird. It's soft metal and bends pretty easily.

The end of the shaft has a square cut groove cut in it just like what is called for when using a c-clip. All you need to figure out is the correct thickness and diameter of the groove to select the right c-clip.
