To me, it sounds like you missed the leaf bolt hole on one side. I just did the 6" drop arm on mine a little over a month ago and I remember looking at mine thinking "why in the world did they only put one bolt going through the leaf pack?". If you missed the hole, you may be pushing the axle out to the end of the leaf pack, making the clamp device barely caching.

PICS would help this issue.
WOW. You could not be more correct. I had a mechanic friend help on the lift and when I got home last night the right leaf spring was not all the way forward so the bolt was not in. I actually drove it around a bunch before posting and i guess i got super lucky. Thanks so much for the thought
