Freestyle Steering cable adjustment head scratcher

[pigpen]

So I've recently went from thrust trim to xscream trim and installed a new steering cable. Cable is a 96-07 and I'm using the xmetal cable extension on the steering cable. Issue is the steering on the pump end bottoms out and will not give full throw. I feel like it's only allowing about 45-50% throw to the right. The cable up top at the steering plate is not attached and the xmetal extension is adjusted all the way in to the max (i know there is more threads to go on the pic but it can't adjust in any further). The cable is ran correctly with the longer end on the pump side. I feel like this may be a easy fix and I'm just overthinking this situation. 2nd pic is the throw to the right and third pic is throw to the left. Any help would be great!

if you have a adjustment on your bracket on your steeringyou need to move the cable in closer

No adjustment on the nozzle and I've tried movie it in all the way on the steering plate and still nothing. I can get the throw somewhat even on both sides, but it's little to no throw.

must need longer steering extenders on the ends of cables !

Shouldn't it need less of a extension to get full throw of the cable since the cable is bottoming out on the pump side?

You could cut some threads off of the heim joint extension.

I'm thinking that's what I may have to do, it's crazy how little movement I get out of this thing right now. Lol
