Hazen,
    You overlooked the growing action brackets. You should still have
time to call Don Mannino with the serial number and he will send out new
action brackets which you will then install and bill Young Chang America
for your labor to do so. A common problem but if you've never seen it
before it's a bit of a head scratcher. Have fun!!!
