I took mine (same problem) to several people, most of whom said to weld
the sucker together and forget it. I finally found a guy who owned his
own garage and who used to be a head mechanic in a LBC dealership.
He drilled a small hole in the back of the fork and pushed the rest of
the taper pin out. I replaced it with a hardened pin and put another
split pin in at an angle to it for reinforcement.
It was simple to do and even I could do it! ;-)
Let me know how it comes out.
