Split pin (5/64 in. x 1/2 in.)
A 5/64 in. x 1/2 in. split pin used to secure fasteners in the gearbox outer cover and rear brake assemblies.
This is a small split pin, 5/64 in. by 1/2 in., the kind of part that never gets much attention until you're missing one. It shows up in the catalog under the gearbox outer cover listing and again under rear brake, which tells you it's a general-purpose fastener retainer rather than something built for one specific job.

A split pin like this pushes through a drilled hole in a bolt, pin, or shaft and then gets its legs bent over to keep whatever it's holding from backing out or rotating loose. It's cheap insurance to keep on the shelf since it's the kind of thing you don't notice is gone until a clevis pin or adjuster walks out on you.
The alternate number 98338A100 is tied to this same part in our records, so if you've got that number written down from an older parts list, it's the same physical pin. Given how it turns up in multiple figure listings, it's worth grabbing a few at once rather than ordering one at a time.
