Hi Guys,
Now I have a question for you all.
What is this little pin sticking out from the main wheel pivot, and how do you make it stay in place?
Having tighened the door springs, so the wheel well doors snap shut nicely, I found something was snagging on them during extension. It turned out to be this little pin, which had migrated outwards. I pulled it out with pliers, cleaned out the hole and replaced it with Loctite bearing retainer, but it keeps on coming out again.
I didn't have a camera with me, so these are blow-ups from an older photo, taken over a year ago. Sorry it's grainy, but it is now clear that this pin has been protruding a bit for some time.
I guess the question is... how to I lock it in place?
Yours, Bob

The pin is soldered to this two piece shaft and it should be even with the surface seen in the picture, so it has moved. There is a hole in the upper UG fork, and the pin is locking the shaft to fork (preventing rotation to upper fork).
