Baling wire; duct tape; vice grips; all have a use and it isn't always as designed. I'm gonna guess that the pin that you needed is like a clevis pin. It's probably hardened and what you have will probably wear more quickly, but a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do. I once tied a tie rod end onto the spindle with a shop towel. It got me home, okay?
