I purchased a Rhino tire carrier for my M998. The pivot pin is slightly bent. I have been searching to see if anyone has successfully straightened one, but have had no luck. I was thinking I could disassemble the tire carrier , clamp the swivel pin in the vise, and heat it with a torch. I plan to find a piece of black iron pipe or tubing that will fit over it so I can try and bend it back. Does anyone know how the pin is held onto the swivel bracket? Is it just a interference fit? Plug welded? I was wondering in case I need to have a new pin made. Thanks
