what the hell is going on

I need some help… somehow something got fucked up and I am unsure how. I got new forks for my F4i because my **** was bent ,so I converted them with new F4i forks. yesterday I decided to flip my clip on’s so I had to raise the fork tubes so they would go all the way on , I did that and when I went to put the tire back on I realized an issue the spacers in-between the fork and the rim are different sizes ? Or at least Mine are so one side scrapes the rotor …… I cant figure out what the ****. Did I lose a washer or a spacer when I took the tire off or what ? I have a extra rim so I took the bigger spacer out of that and now it seems to be fine but that cant be right both sides have the same size spacer now that cant be right ? Keep in mind this bike is new to be and I have not yet got to ride it , im just trying to get it set up spring is coming. If your sitting on the bike the right side is the side that the smaller spacer was on….

i can put up pics if you dont know what the **** im talking about. THANKS
Sorry for the long description

Re: what the hell is going on
