But it's creeping over time, don't you think? It's not like the fork took all that off at one time. Plus, the nut doesn't seem centered on the fork anymore.

You need to pay real close attention to this post...he's right that did not happen in one swipe. Something is moving side to side down there that is probably going to get worse as time goes on.

Good catch Rod.

I went back and checked my archives. It's been doing this for years. I just caught it though on my inspection this week. Here's a shot from when the car was literally brand new. What also irritates me is that I bet I've looked directly at that wear a couple of dozen times and still didn't see it.
