This just happened to me yesterday. If you turned that big eccentric cam, that would do it. Rotate it to give max room and it should go together OK. After adjustment, it always tightens up a bit as you tighten the four nuts. Put a little windage into your adjustment. The other times it will tighten up is as the car is put on it's wheels. I always found that you have to adjust it with the weight on the wheels. Not easy to get right.
