I took my kids out sailing/trolling in the TI for redfish in lake pontchartrain Friday and had a blast. Caught some nice reds trolling spoons. When I got in the water I noticed we were missing 2 hardware pieces on the TI. I want to get these delivered ASAP as we have a month long trip in september and the TI will be used heavily. I'm missing the two pieces below. If someone knows the part # that would be awesome. I typically order from austinkayak. Not sure how they came off just went out and noticed both were gone.

Regarding the pin ... so you don't loose you new one(s) - I use a 4" GB cable tie in mine so they can't come out.

You should be able to pick up a suitable Harken shackle of the right size almost anywhere.

If there is a Harbor Freight near you, they have them for $3.50 a piece.

The ones shown are too large. The pins are 1/4" diameter. You need 5/32 to fit through the hole in the block's base post.
