   You give up to easily.  Pull out the chassis from the case.  Shove a   
   piece of paper in between the chassis and case where you suspect it   
   might be binding.  Push the chassis into the case until it stops. Pull   
   it out again.  You should see some damage to the paper where the   
   chassis and case are binding.   
      
   When that happens to me, most of the time it's either loose wires or   
   wrong length screw.
