This'll sound silly but the trick is to set the case in the sun for a while 
 and let the alloy expand for that extra bit of clearance.
 
The 500 watt halogen shop light works very well too!

I have had the same problem many times even when using a  dummy shaft.
I did have some success on the last one by gently moving it  into place 
with a screw driver.
Did you use lots of sticky grease on  the case side to keep it in place?
