F350. / Stevec
i like your idea. slitting the bore and clamping would without a doubt apply allot of clamping force coupled with stevec recommendations on pins that can be purchased commercially would work, all so having the pin threaded and clamped would stop the pin walking out.
I agree the Loctite would be suspect for strength.
This plate and pin is used to lengthen / shorten the stroke of the ram but my action is with a Acme screw coming from a bronze bush/block connected to the top of the plate, the block is recessed into the plate.
See, brain storming pays dividends, so far i like this idea if nothing else turns up i probably will go with this.
Thank you
Anthony.
