ABSTRACT:
A turbine engine exhaust nozzle is disclosed that includes an exhaust liner having a first attachment structure. A liner support member includes a second attachment structure. A pin cooperates with the first and second attachment structures and is configured to secure the exhaust liner relative to the liner support member. The pin includes first and second dimensions that are different than one another. The pin is inserted into apertures provided by the attachment structures, in one example. The pin is oriented to position the first and second dimensions in a manner providing increased clearance within the apertures. The pin is rotated to load the components and firmly secure the liner to the liner support member.
