Help me understand. The door stay kit I’m using comes with a pin but it’s too big for the hole. I could make the hole bigger but there’s still no groove for a clip. Stock pin on right

I happened to glance at the door stay on my Nissan yesterday and noticed they used a split roll pin instead of a clevis. Made me wonder if that might not be a good solution to compensating for wear and variation in hole size.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

The pin needs to roll either in the car attachment or the stay itself. The problem happens because the clevis wears in time because of this movement |
