Default Re: Drive shaft lock pin

So...how many days' pounding does it take to peen over an original pin? I got a couple of OEM pins from Fred Willner (Southside Obsolete) and a couple of aftermarket ones from C&G. I decided to go with the originals -- and I think that was a mistake. After 5 or ten minutes of pounding (it's well backed-up) this is all I've gotten. Are the new pins a lot softer?


If I switch to the C&G pins, how much stick out should I leave when I trim 'em down? Thanks.
