trouble installing a timney trigger on a win 70

i have a model 70 super shadow and i just bought a timney trigger for it.
I got the old trigger out by taking out the 2 pins. I put the timney trigger in
but i dont understand how to get back pin with the trigger stop to work
as the timney trigger has no hole for that back hole to go through?
also what is the threaded rod and nut for, that is in the front of the
timney trigger housing? I dont see a place for that threaded rod to go in
on the reciever..[:(]

    You didn't read all the instructions. For the back pin,,,you have to cut off the pin to a length (don't recall the length, but its in the instructions) so that it will go in the left and retain the bolt stop/release, and secure it with locktight. On the right side tap out the hole and put in a short screw to help retain the trigger.

    well i got the trigger to cock now.. the trigger was adjusted where it couldnt release
    when the trigger was pulled.. I guess it was like that from the factory.Anyway i got
    that fixed. Now i guess tomorrow i will go and cut that pin off and see if i can complete
    the install.
