here are some pics of the two u bolts side by side, etc...

mine is on the right in the side by side pics. and on the top in the stacked pics.

if mine is bigger it is only slightly bigger. it is more evident when they are stacked.

it doesn't seem like they would make that much difference though, but i know that if i tighten the nut any more i will be afraid it will bust off and i don't want that!

the spacer also seems to me to be longer than the one you stated in your PM, HH56.

i don't know what could be the issue, i am confused. i put everthing together right, even triple checked.

put the bushings under the rear end with the spacer piece installed inside them and put the u bolt through, put the bottom plate on and tightened the nuts and that should be it...that is all i did on the other side. i also tested my tightening torque side to side and they are roughly the same, so any more and i wouldn't feel comfortable. the bushings seem to be squishing the same amount as well.

hmmmmmm.....
