Kick Starter Binding

I just replaced the clutch basket on a blaster and now the Kick starter is binding up. It gets stuck about halfway down and wont move. I have removed the case like 3 times. When I remove or even losen the case the kick starter pops right up and works fine. I dont think its the spring because I tried 2 different springs and still have the same issue. Any ideas?
 
Hi Oakie
