force crank rubbing bottom bracket
 
While installing a 2010 force crank, the inside of the drive side is rubbing the bottom bracket. I purchased a new GXP BB so I think I have the correct parts. Any suggestions?

Pictures might help explain the problem more clearly.

Isn't it supposed to contact the rubber face on the drive side?

Have you over-torqued the non-drive side crank bolt? too much tension there will put too much preload on the bearings.

Ext BB's are supposed to do this. Assuming you haven't overtorqued the crap out of the crank bolt.
