Hey Ronald, while I'm not totally sure what your problem is it sounds like maybe your trailer's right side leaf spring isn't wanting to line up properly with the hanger bracket when you are attempting to bolt it all back together. What you can try is changing the height of the axle of the trailer relative to the trailer frame to see if you can find a height that allows the spring to be in right location to push bolt through. You can do this with a jack to push the axle up.
