[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 84608, member: 82"] Another possibility is that the pin has slid into the bobtach further than the bolt can reach. I have used a piece of welding wire with a hook on the end. This way you push it in and it will go through the pin and hopefully lodge in the threads and when you pull it back it will seat. Keep pulling and it will straighten out and pull through. Now screw in the bolt and see how you go. Now, there is an issue with this method..... You will have grease on the taper, you want it dry to give a reliable seat so it does not move. The best way to do the job is take the bobtach off, clean out all the old grease, clean the pins and tapers, re-assemble then grease up. [/QUOTE]
