RV-9 fuel tank question

In my right tank my float is hitting the stiffener when it comes down. I'm sure by looking at the plans I am putting it together right. Am I nuts or what is the remedy for this? Did other 9 builders have this issue?
 
Stiffener

In my right tank my float is hitting the stiffener when it comes down. I'm sure by looking at the plans I am putting it together right. Am I nuts or what is the remedy for this? Did other 9 builders have this issue?

Is the stiffener installed with the flange facing the correct direction?
 
Stiffeners are right, that was the first thing I checked. I ended up just bending the wire slightly and am getting a reading of 30 and 240 on the meter. Just like says in the manual so I should be good then, right?
