Accu-Just Hitch Pins

[Richard Strang]

If you are not wrong, then Mapes doesn't know what they are asking. Once
again, I'll have to go to Baldwin to find out what they say. The hitch pins
were quite large, I remember that, so I'll be they are the 1/4 inch variety.
I have no idea what other sizes they have. Why couldn't Baldwin just put in
a regular hitch pin and plate. I don't hear any great difference for all
that "technology". I guess they just wanted to be different. Thanks for the
input.

Richard,

I wasn't aware that Baldwin had ever had more than one size of the
Accu-Just hitch pins! Am I wrong?
