Hi, I'm looking to replace the rear pivot block on my XXX with an aluminium one. I've found a Trinity Kinwald part, but not sure if it's the block itself or just the anti-squat shims - mainly because of the description at Trinity's web site. Their description:
TK5016 Blue Aluminum 2 degree Rear Pivot Blocks.
Note the plural there. This is what has caused the concren. Surely the pivot block itself would be just listed as pivot block, singular.There's also a part TK5015 with the same description but 0 degrees.
Anybody know whether these parts (TK5015, TK5016) are the pivot block itself or just the anti squat shims?
Thanks,
FP.

Thanks, that worked. It is the actual block. I'd tried a couple other online hobby places but none of them had a photo, neither did Trinity. Thanks again.

In case you weren't sure, the 2 degrees and 0 degrees refer to the anti-squat. The toe-in is the same in both blocks.
