    What, like between the rollers? Are you using a single leaf or multi leaf spring? The single leafs use marginally thicker steel so wouldn't fit rollers designed for multi leafs ?

    Or are they PTFE type bushes? I just took a grinder to mine till the front of the spring slid in an out of it nicely.

    Never had any trouble with it...
