Pin and Bolt. Upper Control Arm Pivot.

[Leo B]

Do I have the correct Upper Control Arm Pivot Pin #524227 or is it meant to be like this?
I have correct size bolt 3/8 and the hole for that is not exceptionally loose. The Pin locks easy when the bolt is tightened. But...
The pin groove allows for a lot of lateral movement and the groove is wider and deeper than intended for a 3/8 bolt. I can fit about a 0.6 inch bolt in the groove. The 3/8 bolt couldn't have made that groove. This greatly affects, among other things, caster adjustment.

If the bolt is cinched up tight, there will be no movement between upper pin and the king plan.
