Guys, I guess the best thing here to do is see what clearance I am left with and then use silicone or velco depending on the outcome - does that seem logical?

Whilst on the questions, scale retracts -

I received the retracts late last week and wanted to check a couple of things. Firstly, one leg has more movement than the other, and the one with the shorter travel is considerably stiffer (as you would expect) now correct me if I am wrong but are these items not meant to be factory (BVM) set? If so not good at all.

Secondly I read somewhere that the main legs needed a stronger spring rate to stop bounce, and an oil filled version was suggested, does this ring any bells?

Appreciate the help.

Marc.
