The square nuts I'm hoping for a fall back plan to make work. We got these racks through Graybar.
But all the types of expansion units seem to also have pins too. I'm hoping those are just "nice to have".

Most of the internet sites I've seen want to sell you the full rail kits. Even then I don't trust them to have all the parts. Who knows, they may have got them from someone like me who pitched the square pins.
Hmm, I wonder if I could work a trade. Let me have (or sell me discounted) the new rail kits. I can put them in my new racks. Get them all ready and situated. Then come downtime it would reduce downtime for me and allow me to get stuff moved from rack to rack even faster? Then after downtime I could ship the old rail kits.
Maybe even toss in a genuine IBM rack when I return them for their trouble?
I would need right/left rail kits for
Two 5887 disk expansion units
Two ESLS disk expansion units
One EMX0 expansion unit.
