I don't think you can just get pins for the shaft, think you have to get TLR2970 drive shaft, about 18 quid ish I think, Yours are worn??? I would expect drive cups to go 1st.

The other end is easy with drive shaft rebuild kit TLR2972

by yourself some stainless metal stock of the right diamter, heat up the end of the driveshaft, tap old pin out, fit new pin in place (reheat driveshaft to help fitting, cut to size.
