Another  issue was the piano had been put on a truck (stage 
piano).  The lyre  is very close to the floor.  The pedals just-about 
bottom-out on the  floor.  This is an uncomfortable leverage position 
for the foot and  their pianist had complained.  They wanted me to 
shorten the lyre.  ;-)   I suggested adding to the legs.  Question is, 
are  piano trucks usually adjustable?

Trucks do not have an adjustment. But the reason the lyre is too close to  
the floor is because the truck's arms are bending, which lowers the whole piano. 
 This is easy to spot, with the middle of the truck, the center of the three  
arms, is probably up quite a bit, and the leg plates are almost to the floor. 
 This is most likely cause by having a truck that is not the right size for 
the  piano. There is not enough sleeve in each of tthe arms to make it stable.  
The only solution is to put the piano on a bigger truck. If there is enough  
sleeve in each arm, then you need to take the weight of the truck, and tighten 
 all the bolts.
