When you had things apart did you ensure that the balls, spindle and cups were in good condition, not rough or pitted? Any roughness will make it difficult to get a satisfactory adjustment. As mentioned in the article the adjustment is finicky and you may need several tries to get it as close to perfect as possible. Try moving the adjustment half (or less) as much as you have done, a very tiny movement will make all of the difference between good and crappy.
