Nothing wrong with the retainers being slightly smaller than the spring.



These are 1.33" OD compared to 1.50". With the damper springs I'm thinking that will allow for less movement side to side. Suppose that's why the factory did that.



I think you are wasting way to many brain cells trying to figure out why the factory did it.

Chew on this , it's cheaper to make a smaller part because it uses less metal , manufacturers are all about spending as little as possible to maximize profit .
