Maybe the hinge pin is not through all of the holes properly.

Either the hinge on the door is bent down or the tabs on the dash are bent up. If you got a repro hinge, I suspect the latter. See if the tab if flat against the bottom of the dash before it goes 90 degrees up.

If the two small brackets are on the bottom of the dash they should have holes for the hinge pin as well as the two ears on the hinge screwed to the glove box door. Yes the pin is mounted to the bottom of the glove box. On my car the large U shape is on the RH side (toward door) of the glove box.
