I have '58 6532. My crown also stays "out" (when screwed in) like the one in this thread.

Is it a feature, or is there wrong stem or even a wrong tube?
I know 6532 uses "ladies" tube 24-5330, which is smaller than widely used tube 24-5300.

Overall length difference between these two are 4 mm. (3.2 mm vs 2.8 mm)
These both tubes go with the crown 24-530, so I guess it's not that.

Any adwise?

While the link pic's crown seems to stick out a lot, the crown should not contact the case. Unless the crown has be over tightened and the o-ring compressed.
