Hi guys How would you all define reaming with "the proper sized bit"? as stated below by Paul and others. Is the goal to jsut ream out the little shoulder at the bottom or the hole or to ream the entire length for the new pin as David L. suggested. Dale ----- Wouldn't you want to chase ("ream") the hole with a proper-sized bit, too? Even if for no other reason than to make the hole the proper depth, i.e. remove the "shelf" at the bottom?? IF that shelf is causing the problem, pulling/replacing the pin isn't going to help, is it??

Dale s I'm still a newbie, I feel somewhat uncomfortable using a zapper. I'm also ot keen on attempting to use David Doremus' great idea of loosening the ension, remove the becket, back the pins out with a drill, becket back in, and e-set the pin. I think it's a great idea, but I'm just not at that level yet.
