One thing I noticed from the rebuild kit I got when I did mine, was that the original shaft had the groove for the clip, and the replacement shaft in the kit did not. So I reused by original one as it was still in good shape.
That is what happened in my case as well. With the pin having escaped almost the whole way, I could clearly see that there wasn't any groove for the clip. Unfortunately, the original pin DID make good its escape so we're working on a plan "B".
Has anyone contacted our suppliers about the groove being absent? My kit came from THEN AND NOW and it was obviously without. Might this be something like the gasket problem with the B-T-V repair kits?
Any ideas about how to make the pin stay put?
