Went ahead and picked up a pack of those hardened hinge pins from grainger. With two dromidas myself and two of my kids each have one, were goung through hinge pins left and right. I can usually straighten them out but rarely get them perfect, just depends on how bad the bend. I cant bend these new ones with my mits alone where as the stock ones i can. Just have to shave off 2mm with the 38dt52. I believe the other part number you listed was a little too short. Only down side is you have to buy 100 for $15 and like $14 shipping! So I've got these pins for life probably!!! Lol
If you, igottabeme, or the dromida speedster (forgot his name but he knows who im talkin about) want some. Kick me a like 3 or 4 bucks for shipping through PayPal or something and I'll send u guys a stack. Just throwing that out there...
