I replaced the stock focuser with a Moonlite and just used a cheshire to get the secondary mirror aligned. Am I missing something?
Did you buy the MN190 Moonlight adaptor? If so your probably fine. The alignment applies to the focuser draw tube, not the secondary. You want the draw tube of the focuser perfectly positioned above the secondary, which means it has to be far enough forward to achieve that alignment, which is what the adaptor gives you.
