Rowland, just a further thought, you haven't set it up so that it's trying to 
retract
the wheel too far/ too high?  Whereas the undercarriage downlock gate and
set up IS critical I don't think the exact position of the undercarriage lever
UP lock gate is quite so important.  Obviously you want it up as much as 
possible
and not too low but it can't of course go up too far.  Adjusting the rear
latching face of the upgate rearwards slightly would mean the wheel wouldn't
lock up quite as far but it might then not foul the items you mentioned.  You
would then have to completely re-set up the flap retraction adjustment again
with probably a new flap retraction horn etc....!
Maybe looking at Ian's plane as he mentioned above would give you a very good 
comparison.
Cheers,
