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.
