Nexus 8-sp won't freewheel

Just got through cleaning and doing an ATF bath on my Nexus hub. I only disassembled it down to removing the carrier unit. After reassembly, the hub won't freewheel freely. It will freewheel, but with a lot of resistance. Bearing preload doesn't seem to be an issue since I tried installing the wheel with no play and with obvious play. Same issue either way. Any ideas?
