The master link's center spacer is the one that fits looser around the pins. The one you mushroom the pins out over fits pretty tight. I got my dad to hold a sledge hammer against the back of the master link while I peened the pins over with a nail set.

I've been like my avatar through most of this project. This car is so pleasant to work on. My mom about her towels and dad about the floor is probably the worst part. I've been grinning the whole time.

This is my first night off because I ran out of parts. It was kinda nice to not have solvents and grease all over me in humid 90F weather.
