If you look at the area where the spring plates pivot, at the front, you can 
see how far the center point can get off center before it starts to rub metal-
on-metal. You only get about 1/8" before this happens, partly because even with 
new rubber in there the weight of the car pushes them off center.

Were your metal parts worn into each other? I'd think that's the only way that 
you could get anywhere close to 1/2"
