Soooo I think that I may ALSO have a ISO vs. JIS issue, because it looks like the crank is not going far enough down on the spindle. I'm gonna go back to the LBS later this week and discuss both issues with them. Thanks again for all the help everyone!
Thing is, if you rode the crank on the wrong (JIS) spindle for a while, it may be a bad idea to put it on an ISO spindle now it has deformed inside... Ask Sheldon or God, whichever you got better connections to.
