I'm fair to picky.

BUT...that's one reason they have grub screws in the upper arm mounts...to keep the pin in place and, in case you end up a touch oversized, "pinned" over to the outboard "side" of the bore. One screw is really all you need, the second grub screw is added complexity/weight (not that they're particularly heavy, but it's "free" reduction.
