I came across this in the Cibola nf on my last NMBDR trip . Anyone know what it is?

On my last trip, my X-Bull winch got quite a workout and the special bolt that goes in the engage/disengage lever vibrated loose and fell out somewhere. It is a special bolt that I think looks like a small screw with a smaller stud on the end. It goes where the long screw is in the attached pic...

So I got tired of getting out in the rain and getting wet to set up my tent and finally decided to do something about it. I wanted to be able to just crawl in the back and go to sleep, if need be, and I wanted the platform low enough that I wouldn't hit my head on the ceiling if I sat up. I...
