So it tooks me a while to understand what was happening here.

First of all i saw an half cm gap between baseplate and hanger (on the oposite side) and was not able to figure how comes it bended this much without breaking the kinping.

Then after all i took my callipers to double check this “miracle”, it happears that all of the external dimensions were the same as the other truck.
At this point i got really confused…

that’s only by chance that i saw the other side of the trucks when checking my motors after my daily comunte :
what’s happend is the brass part between the baseplate and the hanger broke in pieces due to the amount of torque,
That let the hanger in direct contact with the baseplate, it grinded a good 5mm of (steel ?) metal.
That’s a freaking miracle it didn’t broke yet
