wbain5280,

Thanks for the picture and great tip.

The universal clevis pin is also known as a Tine pin.
The keeper pin is also known as a Hitch pin.

I imagine one can also use a cotter pin.

I just bought the materials to do a fix. (1989 300SE right rear window)

My question is, did you use a 2/10 inch diameter clevis pin (with a 4/10" diam. base) or the 3/10 inch diamter one (with the 5/10" diam base)?
Do you recall whether you used a washer inside the nylon jaw or did you just use washers on the outside under the keeper pin?

Thanks.
