Gene has a good idea, Keith. Did the pin come out? Or did it leave a stub
in the crank? My guess is that the original was a standard hardened pin and
was held in place with an upset area in the middle of the pin. Rural King
may have some of those pins. A single roll pin won't have enough strength
to do the job, but you may get away with dual roll pins installed inside
each other.
