Aaron,

Do yourself a favor.  But them new.

I went down this same road trying used fulcrum pins many years ago and it
never worked out great, even after having the pins lightly machined to clean
them up.  I eventually replace them with new parts.  They are available from
any of the major suppliers.

Everything looked fine until I removed the very old disentegrating rubber
bushes and discovered one side of the fulcrum pin was severly rusted and
quite a bit of the pivot point crumbled and fell away.  Not much question
that it was no good.  Does anyone have a spare one they would be willing to
sell.  If so please email me off list with a price etc.
