Rods to Keep Wings in Place

As I lost one of the rods or pins or bolts that keep the wings of my Avid Flyer in place I would be grateful if anyone could inform me where I can get replacements. Thank you.

I ordered new ones for my Fox from Aircraft Spruce. Fox pins might be longer or shorter than Avid's pins, but AS&S will have them.

On my MKIV and on my Fat Avid, I found that the clevis pins would slowly work their way up and out. It was very slow and I always saw it and tapped them back down before they worked up to the safety clip which would have stopped them. However, since I don't fold my wings routinely, I ended up bolting the front of the wing on. Still super easy to remove when necessary but just feels better to me than the pin that tries to work its way out.
