wrapped a very thin piece of aluminum around the pins such that the fit snugly
in the pad holes.

Hi Tom,
Can you describe how you "shimmed" the pins?

Not to be a doubting Thomas:), but mine have clicked for years and no damage
to the pins. Some time back, I shimmed the retained pins so they couldn't
move and this helped with the click--and will protect the pins---assuming
they need protection.

Michael -
Your pads should NOT be clicking like this with every rotation, and if they
are, you will wear out the retaining pins.
Are you sure you don't have a broken spoke possibly? it will make that type
of noise depending on where it is broken.
