Just bought a complete set from Snyder's no problems.

Amen on the repro king pins being machined wrong. I recently bought a set that had originally come from Macs and not only were the grooves wrong, they were marked wrong as far as left and right were concerned. I ended up throwing them out and putting my old ones back in. Rumor has it that...

I like the idea of looking at griding down the spacer a little. I actually got one link on by leaving out the brass seat that would go against the spacer, and even then it was a very tight fit. This makes me think your statement that the spacer is about 1/8" long may be my problem.
