Well, I would look up the part# and go from there. If you don't have that book, then post a pic of exactly what & where you are referring to and you may receive help. If you know what you want dimensionally, then a machine shop could turn them from stock. I often use a pre hardened 4140 round bar. It's not perfect, but will last a long time and can be drilled with difficulty (HSS) and turned with carbide easily.

Thanks Rome, I have that book somewhere, just can't find it when needed. I was thinking of having those pins cast a long time ago but didn't need them too much. It would be a good project. They would need a thicker flange because using the forcing screw holes can really bend the edges.

Your welcome. You can make them out of 4140 like Stephen mentioned.

I assume this is what you are referring to. I made these many years ago. I think I used 4140, and drilled the center to increase the quenching rate since I was heating with a torch and wanted to maximize the hardness. These pins seem to be a sore point as I frequently see them retained by straps welded to the push beam. Other times they are seemingly impossible to remove.
The bushing? How is your hole in the beam? If it is grossly worn out then holding a bushing in there in a meaningful way is tough. Your pics? Let's see some!

I was able to get the pins and bushings from a machine shop the bu
shings have a groove in the center for grease should I drill the pins to accept a grease fitting?

No need to grease those, it will collect dirt and wear them out faster.
