Oh so close.  The new pins came in, they are .187 ,  the existing are .180.  The new female socket is .200 and the existing is .188.   So the new pins won't fit into the existing sockets, but I can trim them down to fit the existing sockets to fit on my lathe.  I will just make new female sockets from round rod for the new leaves.     Thanks for the help.
