As for shackle pins, I don't think so. Just measure your shackle and buy a replacement with a captured pin smile



I used to work for Stagonset, the outfit linked above, and their website has been suspended since I left in July.

A number of us have since set up Westfield Fasteners with a very similar service, offering a range of stainless nuts and bolts.



I hope this is useful for you!
