Bought new springs for my 47 pickup and went through the front axle replacing bearings and seals. Now as I put it back together, the tie rod is dragging on one of the clips that hold the springs aligned. What have I done wrong? First I thought I might have the springs on backwards but there is a clip on both sides of the spring mounting point equal distant. Reversing them doesn't look like it will fix my issue. I could build a shim to put between the axle mount and the spring, but why? There was no spacer in there before. Anyone have any ideas?
