=====================================

Not unusual unfortunately -

 It is also a common cause of not being able to easily remove the 
rear wheels due to fouling the front of the wheel arch - 

There were a lot of springs made some time back (and maybe still)
 were the Front - mid point axle location was up  
to an inch short!.  This produced very interesting steering if only 
one spring was replaced on front or rear!
