Just that the dial holder you use is bad.
Unless you are lucky, there is no way the holes in it match exactly the rod diam and rod center to center distance. Therefore they will bend when you place the dial and the distance you measure will not be correct.
The ABL should correct it and may be it doesn't work too ?
You may also have excessive play somewhere (The "grinding" bearings may have ground the rods badly if they are not the correct steel as often.
Ensure everything is tight and try the simple method, a sheet of paper to make sure all is flat. Recheck to make sure your adjustment really work. A plane is 3 points and here you adjust with 4 screws.
If //, squareness ... it is pretty bad, you may simply not be able to adjust.

Before I used Unified Bed Leveling (UBL), I was using bilinear leveling with BLTouch. everything was fine and calibrated. a 20mm calibration cube would come out ~20mm.
