Al,
That is a common problem.  Sometimes they don't want to come apart 
because of that happening.  When making new lines, I have reused the 
original nuts and ground them down so that they fit correctly in place.  
And touching them up with a file should hurt nothing, though make sure 
that you get it nice and clean before reassembling.
