Default reverse lockout binding

The reverse lock out on my 70 is binding. I recall the arm on the restored column moving easily when I put the coulmn in. The tranny shifts into reverse like butter. The linkage from the reverse lever to the column is correct and free. It is the arm on the column that is now binding. I loosened the column to gearbox splined attachment as well as the colum to shaft attachment and gave them as much play as I could. No change. I shot WD-40 and some white lithium grease into\ the column where the arm inserts and I worked that sucker back and forth and it's a LITTLE bit better, but nothing like my other 70. I can move the lever with one finger there.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
