I wouldn't call it cheatin' since they (action support studs) (good term) are put
back. But still if the standards pop uo an 1/8 inch after they are let loose,
something is under too much pressure. 
I was wondering if the holes in the standards (action brackets) could be elongated
with a rat tail file or an attachment on the Marvelous Moto Tool.
