Connection between sleeve (shell) and pin (beam)

(OP)
Hi.
I'm trying to connect two instances - a sleeve with a pin. I put the pin to the sleeve (as it's normally done). The assembly You can view here.

I used MPC Beam, MPC Link and MPC Pin connection to test which of these will be the best choice. I got, as I could expect different results. Does anyone carried out such a test? I don't know which MPC is the best choice (or if the MPC...). Maybe someone could give me an advice how to model a pin-sleeve connection in a proper way. This connection is a part of a bigger construction so I'm not interested in obtaining precise results.
Thanks for helping in advance.
