Default suspension stiff as..!?

Hi, guys and gals

I've recently had to change the drivers side-
bottom arm,
bottom arm-to body shell bracket,
the hub,
disc/cailper

The car is a 99 model ford ka, the parts mentioned above are from a 97 model!
I've adjusted all the dampers off, all around the car, but the drivers side front is solid.
It doesn't bounce!!! Nothing shifts it, i've had that damper off+checked it, everything works okay. Put it back on+still stiff.

I also had to change all the shocks to Gaz dampers all around the car.
I did have to change the rear beam from the fork to slot type.

So can any one shed any light on this?? I'm p***ed off. A full week of head scratching and stripping and rebuilding and i'm sick!

Cheers
Andrew
