I never had much luck parting on my old SB9A--pretty much the same as you describe.
When first got my new Enco 12x36 lathe I was hesitate to try parting because of my experinence with the SB--but it parts like a dream using the same cut off tools.
I had also replaced the cross slide nut and screw--no difference, other than less backlash. I don't think backlash is the problem.
