Crank help needed

I have a Stylo crankset and have installed it successfully in the
past. However I recently changed the bearing in my pivots and had
to remove the crank to do so. Now the crank shaft doesn't want to
slide all the way through the bottom bracket and sit flush along
the drive side. If I loosen off the non drive side bearing the
shaft will go all the way through, but as soon as I tighten it the
shaft pushes back out.
What am I missing?
I don't think I lost any parts when I took it apart.
Any help or suggestion would be great.
Thanks!

is the frame bearings seated properly.... the chainring may be
contacting the frame somewhere?

The shaft doesn't have a groove worn in it or look bent/ have a
shiny polished spot on it? Might be a thought.

Thanks for the tips guys.
I've been working a bit of OT and hope to have time to look at it
again tomorrow.

The kind folks at Bikes Plus fixed me up with a spacer today and
things seemed to be fitting better. I'l give it the ride test
tomorrow to know for sure.
