Skip, aside from what Rob and others have mentioned there are other possible explanations for the difference. Did you hand cut your plates? If so, they could be slightly different diameters. Did you center the standoffs on the plates? If not, one side may be closer to the wheel well than the other. Did you inspect your bogie arms for slop when the bags were removed? Excessive slop from wear will cause the clearance to change over the travel range. Are your plates centered in the bogie arm mounting hole? There is a small amount of adjustment room(very small) due to the difference in hole size compared to bolt size.

The easiest thing to do to check whether it is the coach or the bag assembly is to switch bags side to side. If disparity persists then cause is likely coach related. If disparity changes then it is very likely the plates.
