nothing to do with the shocks, it'll be the caps on the pivot ball's in the front hub, slacken them of a smidge and you'll be right.

make sure the pistons arent over tightened as well can make the shocks bind, but as stated also the pivot balls can do it as well, I take it you made sure everything dropped under its own weight on the arms side of things when building.
