Default RE: top frame pins

What pin are you talkin about. It is is the one that allows the latch to close then you can take a bolt 5/16 is I remember correctly, shave the head down on a grinder until it will fit in the space provided on the outer side of the top, and then use a locking nut on the other. Won't be perfect but it is cheap. I have to retighten my bolt about once every 6 months or so. Some locktight would solve that problem as well, but I am lazy sometimes.
