What has happened to taper pins? I need two AN386-3-9A pins to tie a
universal joint to a one inch torque tube. AS&S says that I've got to
buy 5 at 17.50(USD) each.

Can anyone recommend a source that actually wants to sell them at a
reasonable price?

Try ebay? This listing is for 4-27s, but who knows what will show up
next week? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=26439&item=2431553561

You might think about using standard taper pins, used in machinery. Several
local hardware stores around here stock them, in a variety of sizes. NOTE:
they use a different taper than the AN jabbados. And you'd have to figure
out how to retain them yourself.

But typically they run from .60 to mebbe 3 bucks each, depending on size.

For an experimental, of course.
