This has happened and been reported in the past, like Mike said, the OD of the Fastner will actually rub against the ID of the recess of the Pitch Arm. Take the pitch arm (not installed) and run the fastener down and rotate it back and forth several times to wear in. Verify you have the correct lengths in the rightful place and install. Do not crank these down either when tightening. Good luck..
