This thread shows a method to reassemble a Mark V base(Hinge Pin).
5108
The Hinge Pin (and retaining roll pin). Make sure BOTH ends of the roll pin are tapered(Not mushroomed by previous attempts to insert/remove it). File end if necessary.
5109
Insert the hinge pin through the lower part of the end casting and into the way tube end. When near totally inserted, rotate the pin so the hole in the pin will line up with the hole in the casting when inserted further.
5110
Start the roll pin into the hinge pin hole through the hole in the end casting. Before pushing it in all the way, make sure(again) the end of the roll pin is still tapered(not mushroomed). Clean it up with a file if necessary before inserting it further.
5111
Drive the end of the roll pin slightly into the end casting hole. This will allow easier removal if you need to later. The pin is removed by driving it ALL the way in and theough a hole on the OTHER side of the hinge pin bore.
This thread is one of several which illustrate a method for reassembling a Mark V. Please post a reply and inform me of any errors or confusion. They WILL be fixed!
