Recently my bb/cranks/I don't even know started creaking when going over 350w, so I wanted to reinstall it..

So I was hammering away on my BB cups tonight, trying to get them out. No luck.

This endeavor opened up a can of worms; now I realize the previous install (done by a shop) was strange; the wavy washer was on the drive-side, but normally it goes on the left side. And also I realized the cups I'm using are technically not the right ones - they're for "Power Torque" but my cranks are Ultra Torque.. how did this ever work??

When I tried to put the cranks back on, there was too much friction (w/ the wavy washer on the left or ride side).

Hopefully the (new) shop can figure this out, I'm lost. I just want to race the damn thing!
