BB5514 - Hitch Pin for Golden Lift Chairs

The BB5514 hitch pin is a genuine Golden Technologies bow-shaft hitch pin, and it's one of the most common pieces of hardware on a Golden power lift chair. It slides through the hole at the end of a clevis pin and snaps over the pin's shaft, so the clevis pin can't work its way out.

Golden uses these hitch pins wherever a clevis pin holds the lift mechanism together: the top and bottom of the lift motor, the recline straps where they attach to the lift frame and recline bar, the fork head and cradle motor on Twilight-style frames, and the headrest motor on DayDreamer chairs. If you're replacing a lift motor, recline motor, or recline strap, or a pin went missing during a move or repair, this is the part that locks everything back in place.

Compared to a cotter pin, the spring-steel bow design goes in and comes out by hand with no bending, and there are no sharp ends to snag upholstery or fingers. At 1-1/4" long, it's sized for the 3/8" clevis pins Golden uses on its lift frames, such as BB5512. Since a single chair uses several of these, it's worth keeping a few spares on hand.
