Hi Kevin,
You could try this company:http://www.vintagecarparts.co.uk/en/search.phtml They do list a yoke with pin in 7/16" but no seperate pins in that size. Might be worth giving them a call? Cheers,

Make them
Clevis pins are easy to make on a lathe ..I would use 4041 stock, and if required, harden them by quenching . Might be worthwhile asking around your neighbourhood for a hobby machinist . The business people generally charge too much for small one off jobs
Bright mild steel is not a good option as it is difficult to harden at home,as it needs to be case hardened. Mike

If you need, you can have the pins shipped to me and I'll get them to you by using a flat-rate USPS box,(very reasonable price).  Thanks, David

Hi, Thanks for everyones help in locating the pins I need, I have someone getting them to me from USA, seems strange that getting imperial bolts, pins and fittings is easier to locate over there, I have bought rivets, countersunk slotted, round head bolts in the past from America because it is just as cheap including the postage to do it.
Many thanks .
