That's exactly what I did... 30+ years ago.

Jim,

This is easy, get a bolt from your local hardware store that is long enough
that it has +/- 2" of unthreaded shaft and is the correct size to fit in the
hole.  I think the shaft is 1/4" or 3/8".  Drop this in from the top and
then for additional safety thread a nyloc nut onto the end.  The nut does
not need to be completely tightened down.  This will serve as a new pin and
will not fall out in the future.
