Rear shock pin dimensions
Hi,
If anybody would have a rear shock pin in hand, I would need dimensions please.
Total lenght, diameter and tread section lenght.
As I will need two when I'll get the other ones out, I will probably try to machined some in Stainless 316. Thanks Jon for the the sugestion.
Mine are all so damaged right now that I can't mesue the lenght.
Thank you very mutch.

Thank you Tom.
If I can't get some here (machined), I will try 928 Intl for sure.
I will need some more parts too so I'll get in touch soon with them and Roger.
Thanks again.

I wouldnt use stainless for these parts, use carbon steel just like whats in there
In the mean time order a set from 928INTL used will work fine as long as they are straight use antiseize on the pins prior to installing them

If your looking at stainless I would suggest looking at 17-7Ph, 17-4PH or 15-5PH. The mechanical properties are far better than the 300 series stanless. Tensile around 190ksi vs 80ksi for 316.

Used pins are only $35 a piece from 928intl. I've been through this, and I wouldn't think about using custom made stainless in the hopes of preventing this problem in the future. You could be introducing other potential problems...
If you lubricate/coat the new ones properly, you likely won't have this problem in the future unless you go a really long time without removing them (in which case, that will be a really long time from now
)

Ok, FWIW, my measurements: overall length 320 mm, center section 264, threaded part, each end 28.
On my pin dia ranged from 21.95 to 22.00. There's a 3 mm bevel at each end of the center section.
Good luck, you're due for a break after what you've been through with the old ones!
