So, I went to work to remove the spring, as CC hada problem once before with epoxy. Well, the right side had slipped off of the spring. This caused the right side to go lower than the left. Well, I bought some super duper epoxy from a Marine store, and will give it a try. It is in the Hobby shop curing for the 24hrs needed to get the full 150000 psi strenght , etc etc. But, when a person decides to lower, I am going to recommend they just take the aluminum spacers out, and cut the rubber on there down a little. This will keep the factory fusion process they use to keep that rubber on, which is good. That way you dont have to find the right epoxy, etc etc.. Then, if it isnt low enough, then just cut part of or all of the pad eyes on the end of the spring. Thats my take. Sorry so long winded.
Steve did you install the wedges "as is" ie w/o modifying them? When I put mine in I could not see how that "wedge" design would work very well, the point of the wedge puts a lot of pressure where it touches the frame, so I sanded the point off the wedge, so far no problems.
