Reply to Technics 1200 MK2 Tone-arm Lift issue

HI, I hope i'm posting this in the correct section... I just got done replacing a new tone-arm on an MK2 and everything seems to be working OK, but the only problem i'm having is that the Arm lift isn't lifting the tone-arm high enough.. I'm not sure what i did wrong I took it apart a few times and everything looks OK comparing to the picture I took before i did the repair... Any help is appreciated... I did clean and lube up the spring on the arm lift, but still no luck.. I took a few pics.. 1 pic shows how high the lift goes when its all the way up, another shows the inside where the lift mechanism is installed.
