Incorrect. Chain side is ~41mm, wheel(?) side is ~43mm.

My pin won't fit on naked side, but will on chain side.

If I have to guess it makes that side stronger to resist the bigger forces getting exerted on it because of the drive going through at that side.

When I can't stick it in, I either get rid of it or lube it up.
