Split bus part identification
The linkage on my 65 splitty gave way this afternoon in Haberfield, so I coasted to the side of the road thinking my accelerator cable had snapped.
I was lucky since it was a small pin that had worked its way out on the linkage.
I need some help working out what the pin is called. If you look at it end on, its in the shape of a pac man, and it is a spring fit through the
linkage.
i have a bolt in there, but I fear it may fall out.
Any ideas what they are called? and where to get them?
Thanks

Commonly known as a "roll pin" and should be available at Repco or a specalized Bolts and Fastners store.
