Hot damn, I fixed it already. Went to my friend's machinist shop and borrowed a tap and cut an extra two threads. As the tap went in I felt it clear out a couple burrs I'd clearly missed.
Also, I was trying to make a 68mm spindle fit in a 73mm shell, and that just won't work; no, not if it was ever so. It's all better now; thanks!
