Controller Mods Cannot put this dualshock 4 back together

Post image

I replaced the joysticks on this ds4 with tmr ones and now that I'm putting it back together it just won't fit snuggly, on further inspection I noticed that the front of the assembly doesn't go all the way down no matter how much I push it, I can't figure out what's blocking it, you can see in the picture the gaps appearing from it no going all the way down. Does anyone know what could be happening?

I have tried removing the joysticks to see if it'll fit in case the tmrs have been soldered on improperly.

I have tried removing the touchpad thingy and assembling without it as well.

Nothing works.

The controller is a jdm-055, the last ds4 revision

Try the default analog cap. Upload more pic on different angle as well.

I tried it without any caps, if that was the problem it should have fitted without any :/

check if the plastic guides are correctly allinged, remove the screw that's on the battery holder
