I lost one of the stainless steel linchpins holding the wheels on my Wheeleez cart going up and down the ramp at GS7. Anyone know where I can pick one up?

You can order from Wheeleez directly, but I have extras. PM me your address and I'll send you one.

HD has some pins, but I couldn't find the exact replacement. That's why I ordered from Wheeleez directly.

I saw some at west marine when I was in there over the weekend. You might want to try there if you have a location near you .

Domenic and I lost one each on a brushy run down into Bear Harbor 3 or 4 years ago.  A fat zip-tie worked for the rest of that wheel's life - literally years!

  I could tell after they fell out the first couple of times that I used the cart that I was going to lose them, probably at the worst possible time. 
    So I've been using some large hairpin shaped pins that I got at OSH - they slide in and stop an hold when they hit the curve that's in one leg of the clip.  They aren't stainless, so I have to scrape the rust off them and CorrosionX them about once a year so they slide in and our better, but it's not like the rust is going to foul up other parts of the cart.
 You can clip them into the holes on the top to the cart when the wheels are off so that you can more easily slide the metal part into your hatch, and not snag stuff.
   I wouldn't go back to the pins with the ring on them, if anyone wants my old original one(s), I'll try to find them for you.
