Ford 860 Axle Pin Assembly Bolt Spec

[Kaz Farms]

Hi everyone, I just purchased my first tractor, 1955 Ford 860, last year and have been using this site as a knowledge base ever since, thanks for that to begin with.
It appears the last owner didn’t install the front axle pin retaining bolt, and for lack of knowing better I didn’t check it. Long story short, axle pin worked loose, frame dropped, fan blades crashed into the radiator, and expensive lesson learned. I cannot find the bolt spec/size for the front axle pin retaining bolt though. I see it on some exploded diagrams, sometimes with a number but not a spec. I’d appreciate any knowledge anyone can offer. Thanks!

That is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!

None of the books from Steiner that I have included a part breakdown like that. What book is that?

It's from the parts book shown below. Most of the diagrams/parts info are replicated online at CNH and Messicks.
