That was exactly the case during my front end rebuild on the TR4. Before
the rebuild, apparently the front end was so worn it would still turn
fine. During reassembly, There no way to make it fit - I took it apart with
intention to ream the joints to make it fit when I saw the fit was much
different than the other side.
