[QUOTE="starbiscuit, post: 540467, member: 18416"] I'm pretty sure it's a roll pin not a grub screw. The issue is that the 10mm shaft seems to have no bearings where it passes through the chassis, and there's a lot of wobble now that it's so worn. Not sure how I could repair it without removing it, and I'd really rather not destroy it. I thought about cutting off the face of the triangulated structure that the shaft turns in (that the horn bolts onto) and replacing it in two halves, maybe clamping the shaft between two halves of a replaceable bearing. If I could find anything suitable, that is. The crank bracket under the accelerator pedal has a 6mm shaft running in a 10mm OD aluminium sleeve. Not sure if it's home-made, but it is also worn out. At least I can replace that one easily. [/QUOTE]
