If it's all yes to the above, the only thing that I can see is that something is keeping the spool from sitting all the way down on the shaft. Missing teflon thrust washer? Some kind of obstruction underneath the spool?
If the washers were in the wrong order, the drag would tighten and finally lock up on you.

This happened to me a coupla weeks ago. Make sure the fiest two washers are lined up correctly or the spool will not sit all the way down thus leaving it untightenable. Second washer has a subtle groove. I messed with mine for quite a while before I got it lined up right.
