My lower gudgeon on my 27-5 has become a little sloppy after only 30 years. My two options are to either replace it, or drill it out slightly oversized and sleeve it. I would much prefer to replace it if I can find one. Any ideas? This is a transom hung rudder and the "pintle" is really a 1/2 inch diameter by about 3 1/2 inch clevis pin. The gudgeon is a square plate (roughl;y 3x3 inch) with upper and lower bosses with 1/2 inch holes. The part on the rudder slips between the upper and lower, making what looks like an oversized door hinge. I have found what they used on the J-24, but it is two separate pieces for upper and lower, and of course the holes are completely different.
