Can't quite understand why one side is affecting the other but any chance a C clamp could be installed. If there is enough room for the clamp below that keeper bar across the center of stirrup, it could be between the load arm and bottom of stirrup to keep the seat and arm tight. You might even be able to use a block or wedge between that keeper bar and the load arm to keep them seated.

If not enough room, install a large clamp at an angle between the inside stirrup corner and the load arm top to keep it pulled in and arm down. That way might take two clamps -- the large one at an angle and the other can be smaller. Place that small one across the load arm so the large clamp couldn't slide on the arm toward the stirrup and possibly come off.
