I really didn't tighten it all that much to get it to work. I get about 6 clicks when I pull the handle and it's engaged. I tested it by putting the car in Neutral and seeing if it would roll freely down the driveway. I'm thinking you overtightened it. If you want a picture of how it looks let me know. Another option to adjust it is removing the rear wheel.
