I'm sure that there's something simple I'm not seeing at this late hour, so I'm asking for some fresh eyes and ideas.

Here's a picture:

When you are running the center diff the spur does get a bit closer to the motor bulkhead. Had the same issue on ours, but was able to flip the pinion and mount it the other way around on the motor shaft.

Just a tip to try if you already haven't
