 Hi all,

 Just had this grand with a hitch pin that came out. It looks like there was
 a flaw in the casting and it was filled and used anyway. When I drill a new
 hole for the hitch pin about 1/2" further in on the casting, there was
about
 2/16" of filler there but I was able to drill deep enough that the pin
held.
 I have a couple of pictures if anyone is interested. (by the way, it was
 right by a strut and fortuantely NOT under the bass strings.
