That's the way it works... If you have new trunnions or new trunnion shafts.
It get pushed on as you tighten the nut on the trunnion shaft.

I would attach the bracket on the outside loosely as shown in the workshop
manual and then the upper screw in the fulcrum. Then tighten it up. It is
not a "rocket science" fit thing. It is just designed to contain the arm. I
had to work mine a little... then I noticed that if I just loosely assembled
everything and tightened up... it all bent into place.
