Props for taking the time to to do it right. I slapped mine together and it leaks bad. double check that your bearing races are fully seated. re-measure and make sure youre adding or subtracting shims in the right direction. If you cant remove any more shims check that trunion cap for wear where the bearing sits, it could be worn from a seized bearing slipping. measure that cap and compare it to the one from the other side that set up correctly. If you suspect a bent housing look closely in the skinny area between the ball and the weld at the end of the tube.
