Hi,
The pin that connects the piston to the retractable part is broken on my thruster. I believe it is called a shear pin—similar to the one on the propeller. However, I haven't been able to source the correct pin, and I'm currently using a stainless steel bolt, which may not be ideal in the long run.
Does anyone know which pin I should order?

Had the same issue, but found shear pin at boattec.net. Same pin for model 140 and 185.

Good Luck
