I read something somewhere about the nuts having various tolerances.
I found when replacing mine with unused OEM nuts. One nut was too tight
in left head but perfect in the other. The other nut was too loose in
the right head but fit perfect in the other???
You might try a few different nuts and see if you czn find the perfect
match.
