this looks like not enough threads poking through.. What do you think? I tightened the spring retention -looks like a valve- nut down tight. Is something not lined up right or what?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) ....IT appears that the ..."LOCK NUT" has a much taller upper section, with the plastic/teflon enclosed., this would account for some of the threads not being exposed....And the rubber bushing appears to be "Taller" than a O.E.M. part. (it,s possable the nut is not completely tightened.)....the nut is definately not O.E.M. sized , therefore I am assuming the upper bushings, have been replaced also.....for your consideration.
