I found an 8 inch long, 3/8" carriage bolt at Home Dept for $1.39 and it fit perfectly, and I added a nut (12 cents) on the bottom instead of drilling for a pin.

BUT...it's right up against the drain plug so I'll have to remove the nut it to pull the plug out, but hey, for less than $2? No problem!
