Even if they wont back off, that's way too much slop.
Crawl under most any trailer and sloppy fits are the norm. When I rebuilt all that junk, I made my own shackles and allowed much less clearance. I found that the shackles were made with cheap metric dimensioned steel instead of the 1/4" that is specified. The cheap junk locknuts were replaced with quality nuts.
