Thanks Eyegore.

I have talked to the parts store and I will be picking up some new hardware tomorrow to see if this will solve the problem.

As for the other side (passenger), everything seems good, so I think I've got the proper parts for everything. As for machining the rotors, yes it would have been cheaper, but I figured it was time to do these as well, and at $68 ea. it wasn't too bad. So this way all the brake parts are new(ish) - all having been replaced within the last year.

Hopefully the new retainers do the job...
