category II pin diameters

Hello,

I have a question concerning category II pin diameters. I looked here http://www.ytmag.com/atrp/3points.htm

and it tells me that the lower links are 1 1/8" and the upper is 1"

I look at the ASAE standards and it tells me the lowers are 1 7/16" and the uppers are 1.25".

I have a John Deere 4430 with a John Deer quick hitch that I just purchased. I have several implements that do not have the proper dimensions on them and I am going to weld up the connection points so that they will fit the quick hitch. My question is I don't know whether or not to use the smaller or larger pins. The larger pins will fit in the quick hitch, but nearly all of these implements had the smaller ones to begin with so strength is not an issue.

I guess what I am concerned about is if I use the smaller pins, will the free play in the hitch be a problem?
