Cotter Pin Size - Main Gear

[John Tierney]

I'm looking for a "decoder" table to figure out how to order a 1/4 to 1/2 inch longer pin than the MS24665-359. I guess at some point these were AN380's.

I just repacked my main wheel bearings and reinstalled the MS24665-359 cotter pins per the plans. The shop that did the work last year used a longer cotter pin, and it was easier to work with than the plans specified pin.

The ACS website listing for cotter pins gives the diameter and length for each part number, so you can select the one you want from there:

Thanks, that's the list I need.
When I searched for the MS24665-359 it did not bring up the table, only the individual pin (which it said is a COTTER PIN AN380-4-7) and this other page was just confusing:
