If you snugged up driver side bolts first the clearance read different than if starting with the passenger side because of the slant. Back to a local machine shop for that fix. I know that QMP has fantastic state of the art equipment but apparently didn't have qualified personnel to get the job done properly. That was a few years ago and maybe things there have improved?
