You may have to bend the rods a little. I also had to sand the back of one down a bit because it kept binding. You may have to push a little harder as well.

Send the tool back and get some dowel rods from Home Depot or somewhere. JPR=$$$$$$$$$$$ or dowel rods= $1.00.

5/8" rod and just get the it as long as your cam plus a couple inches. I sanded down the driver's side rod on one side so that it was flat instead of round to get it to fit no problem.
