I need to replace a feathering spindle in my shuttle, I recently bought
second hand.
It has a lot of upgrades which includes the feathering spindle. I have
looked around various spares sites but can not find one like it. Can anybody
identify it please. It is the same general size as a standard spindle, but
has a larger diameter middle with a hole drilled through which then has a
pin located through the yoke.
There is a picture of it at

When I bend them on my King, I hammer them back on the anvil attached to
the vice. Hammer gently and avoid the threads.

You could straighten that in 2 minutes.
