Post subject:  traveler rivet holes on crossbar enlarged - what to do?

Several jib traveler rivet holes on my H16 are enlarged from multiple replacements and I'm not sure how to fix them. I've tried a sleeve for my 3/16" rivet but it keeps pulling through the crossbar hole. Can I go to a larger rivet (i.e. 1/4" or 5/16")? Any other solutions?

Thanks[/list]

Larger rivets are the first choice. The only other choice is to drill new holes.

Move the track an inch inboard and re-mount.
