Eric - when I had some lockup going on, you had me mess with the bias adjuster - I bet in all the mass of the swap - you twisted the cable and screwed up the bias - as I begin my rebuild im installing a set of gauges - the cable mechanism for adjustment is a tad wonky in my car - just seems loose and without visual, it's just to hard to tell...
something like these - or possibly digital for the rice effect...
