where can I find a replacement for the fastener that the troop seat bracket pivots on? I'm not even sure what to look for or where to find it.

pivot pin?
pin?


I circled what I'm after in the attached jpg.

You might check with John at Midwest Military. I know he makes the brackets for the jump seat so he might also have those pieces.

Gave John a call this afternoon. The part is a special rivet which he has machines in quantities matching his build run of the troop seat so he does not stock extras.

I'm going to use a clevis pin for now, but if I can find someone with a lathe, I'm sure it could be manufactured.

The Clevis pins should work fine!
