That remains to be seen. My gut feeling is that it's a function of poor fit
allowing hammering to occur during taxying. Like a loose joint in the
middle of a see saw? If it was bearing strength one might expect more rapid
wear of the holes.
If so the expanding pin should work. If not then Loctite would seem to be
the best answer.
