before
after
just that 1/8 of an inch made all the difference
the tools
I tried to keep it high enough so that in case the padding wasnt enough it wouldnt leave marks on the rod that would effect the seal.
also found the when tightening the top end of the of the link that putting the nut on and ********* it down tight and then tightening it by turning the notched part of the link and then tightening the bottom nut works alot better than messing around trying to tighten the nut at the top. I did it last time tightening the nut and it took forever....seems kinda stupid that I did it that way the first time.
