Well I drilled out the tube on the end of the tongue, and the ears on the wagon, and put a 3/4 inch bolt in it.
Turns out that originally there were bronze bushings in the tube, but they were pretty well beat. Drilling it out was an adventure. I didn't want to try holding it in the drill press, so clamped it down and went at it with my old B&D half inch corded drill.
