Maytag Wringer washer- wringer question

[abcomatic]

I everyone, I know this has been discussed before, but I can't find the previous posts. I have a Maytag wringer that I purchased from a friend about a month ago. It was manufactured in 1981 and looks brand new. It still has the pedal type of wringer control on it. I squeezed the pedal control and it crumbled into pieces.
My question is: What size bolt is used to replace the pedal control when the pedal control is removed? Thanks for you help. Gary
