Moving veeerrrry slow on 4.1 project. Have .020 trw forged pistons and stock 2dot rods. What [and from where] should I do about pins?

TIA, Justin
 
Anyone?
Might be a dumb question or maybe Im overthinking this. Should I/ can I just use the pins from the stock 4.1 pistons or are there aftermarket pins readily available? Should I be thinking oversized?
I bought the pistons used in great shape but no pins.
 
Thanks.

Just checked out their website. Are the 3.8 pins same app for the 4.1? Im guessing yes since they share the same rods, but would rather not guess

Justin, how about a little detail on the forged Trw's, off the shelf, custom ordered, new or used???? Oh and price ;)

Got them from a member off this board some time ago. Theyre .020 over forged and have TRW stamped in the underside along with a small plate that says JE (a couple say JE1 I think) and then some space and a symbol. Ive got pics on my computer but dont actually have them near me to look at right now. Dont know if any of this is any help.
I just need to get ahold of some pins if Im going to be able to put them to use.
 
Thanks, I didn't see that they were used in your prior post. Thought TRW may have stepped up with an off the shelf for a 4.1.

Tks,
