				Hi Roland,
   The ''eyeball''  ball socket is held captive by a ring [ collar ], if the ring has moved outboard, it will allow the eyeball to swivel too far, that is why the pin will jam in the hole.
   Find a steel tube that just clears the eyeball, but is smaller than the socket housing.
   Align the eyeball hole parallel to the flap tube.
   Get someone to hold a piece of wood against their leg and bear against the port side of the flap tube, place the steel tube onto the collar and strike the tube with a hammer.
   When the ring is engaged deeper, the eyeball will only swivel a very small amount.
   You must of course use a special Aircraft Hammer, I have these for sale at only £120 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
