Where can I buy shear pins?

[ski]

So I just bought a 1964 Starcraft seahorse and it came with a Minnkota Endura trolling motor. The prop was missing, so I ordered a new one. I noticed the pin that goes through the Spindle??? is bent at about a 20-30 degree angle. I pulled it out with pliers.
I have no experience with motors. Where can I get a replacement pin?

Check with a local boat shop or local guy that works on trolling motors. Hopefully you have something near you.

or call Minnkota. They have been very easy and fast to work with in the past.

Thanks guys,
I found a guy that is about 20 minutes away that has them. I guess he works on Minnkota out of his home.

Stupid me.
I finally realized that there is a shear pin taped to the back of my new prop packaging.

I didn't want to come across as the smart alek but I started to tell you the other day that every new replacement prop that I had ever purchased or seen came with a new shear pin. :lol:
