I did this on both sides of the castor block inserts. Then remove the pin and install in the arm. Almost zero play now. One other note, each hinge pin has a small burr at each end, you need to remove the burr to prevent you from removing material from the hinge pin hole each time to install or remove the pin.

Hope this helps,

Your pro tip is great, I will try that for sure! Just wanted to know that if the pin will not get stuck while doing the CA?
