Another 32 Ford question

[Fredb_]

I had a hell of a time getting these two bolts installed on my 5 window body. It's an original steel body with some repairs sitting on a modern TCI chassis. I'm assuming TCI has their act together enough to have the width locations pretty close and I suppose the fact that I got them installed says allot.


My question for those familiar with the 32 would be this. Is it common to get a slight "spread" to the front lower part of the body since there is nothing really holding it in place until you get it onto the frame? The passenger side bolt wasn't too bad to get started but the driver side required using wood bar clamps to pull it in about a quarter of an inch to get the bolt started and it didn't move easily.
