Default Down thrust in a shocky?

When mounting an AXI, does anyone put down thrust in their motor mounts? How about right thrust?
Thanks!

all of mine have needed some down thrust to get them perfect .. and it ended up with a little rigt as well .. put the mount on strait and then later if you feel you need it use some washers and put them behind the mounting bracket
