Could not find it anywhere.  Anyone have the size, or good replacement recommendations?

Brass hobby tubing.  Any hobby or RC shop.  Might run you $3.
Cut longer than the width of the posts, and slightly pinch the ends so it doesn't work itself out.

either 0.100" or 2.5mm, depending how worn the holes are
Either will fit through float pivot

Big thanks to morini for sending 4 float pins to me for free.  He lives in Australia and cost a few dollars for shipping, great guy!

In the future try a set of drills keep trying until you get a snug fit and use that to determine size. Same thing for cotter pins on your brakes and axle. You always need a big set of drills.
