I'll assume you are calling Item KK (pedal assembly) the "Arm". If so that means the pedal assy is adjusted too high or the tub is setting too close to the frame. When you are going to discuss clearance issues between parts a photo is worth a thousand words!

This is what you said above. That pretty much negates the statement:

Unless every new part matched the old one it replaced and you put it together exactly the way it came apart.

The first place to look is the length of the pushrod between the pedal and the master cylinder piston. Is it exactly the same length as the old one?
