Try the following set-ups to verify there are no other issues....
1. Remove the rear focuser, add a eyepiece adaptor (and a 40mm spacer if you have one) - see if distant objects come into focus.

Let me know.

Thanks Ken,
Will try to test that out before the weekend... might have a shot at it tomorrow evening after work. I don't have much in the way of spacers, but I'm sure I can make up something in a pinch.

just reading through the Moonlight notes on the SCT focuser it says the Tall adaptor should be used for imaging, and that the reducer should be screwed into the tube (scope side). This seems to imply that the reducer (outward and inward range) might be further out using a Tall adaptor than the short one.

Glen,
Yes, I noted that as well. I don't expect it to fix this issue but will make the focuser easier to sell later on.
A random thought crossed my mind, could it be possible that the lens is in backwards in the housing? Not sure how you would tell looking through it.
