shift linkage roll pin

Does anyone know where I can get a reinforced roll pin ? Iv been buying the ones at Napa and they keep on breaking on me. The quality of theirs doesn't seem that great. Iv gone through 4 roll pins since September. I shift hard sometimes but I'm not jamming gears.

I'm in the same boat. Powell racing was selling hardened roll pins bro. I need a new roll pin, along with a few spares right now. somebody else had sourced a few, but they hadn't been on the site since 2012... If I find the contact for them, I'd let ya know

If you are breaking them that fast you need to learn how to drive.

Yeah, I lasted a few days on those cheap NAPA ones. Actually day before I replaced it with the mcmaster-carr, I missed a shift and bent the pin. Could tell by the slop in the shifter.
