These aren't larger pins, they're just doubled up. One inside the other, the 1/4" pin is still within the min./max. dimensions given for a 1/4" roll pin. And, they still compress as required for the hole size. I hammered the small one into the other only because it fits snugly and it doesn't greatly increase the outer diameter of the 1/4" pin.
The minimum diameter of the 1/4" roll pin is listed at .258, wall thickness is .048. Subtract the wall thickness to find the inside of the 1/4" pin is .162", the exact same measurement as the outside diameter of the 5/32" roll pin which is listed as .167" max to .162" min.

Tim they are doubled for a reason but it's your tractor and your repair when and if it fails. I hope you haven't used the silver ones from the big box stores those are not very hard.
