Has anyone else had this issue? How did you fix it? I was considering “notching” a small area of the pin so that it couldn’t move once the set screw was in place…..

Help?
Either notch the pins, or pick up these 2x10mm pins with flat spots.

I've seen this on quite a few cars guys built without flat spotting the pins. I ground a notch on mine when I built the car and haven't had any issues.
