D dezryder Member Feb 23, 2006 321 0 Sep 4, 2006 #4 Why not just add a washer or two on each spring/bolt? Edit to say: That way you don't toast the basket in the process.

I sent the first kit back due to the same problem i shouldn't affect the basket in any way it merely spaces the stack I guess what i am looking for is someone who has run this setup to share their experience thanks
