Default Re: Axle coupler pin staking

There's also an aftermarket safety deal, a strap goes halfway around the shaft. Holes are in both ends for the pin to go thru the pin is peened on the out side, Thusly, if the pin is sheered, the strap holes the parts of the pin from getting out.

Be careful on peeing over not to keep going too long smacking at it as it will just weaken the head. Also a pic showing the heat shrink sleeve I use.
