These pins were protruding about 1/4" beyond the threads which would stop the knock-offs from coming off if they loosened while driving.
Has anyone else seen these and know where to get these pin assys?
Thanks

I believe Nick Acton can make them for you. He made a set of them for my 427SC ERA a while back. I used them as a back up to my safety wired knock offs.
