Short SS A Renner back action

[David Love]

As someone else also mentioned, often these old trays are warped from the
end location of the spring.

Hi Ric/Gene
  Yes, one can rebuild & modify the old tray but it's a more complex
undertaking requiring a table saw for the cutting & fitting of a
riser/extension to build up the back piece where the screws are to be
embedded in the underlever flanges.
  Trix & I are now offering Back action assembly services  to the trade for
Tokiwa  & Renner back action kits with these manufacturers blessing...for
those who do not wish to do this but need to replace a system. Inquire off
list
  Thanks

Ric, 
The original tray is badly warped from the resistance of the leaf spring
installed at the treble end - I will modify this. 
The factory job made a bit of a mess of the original tray and if it were
straight, I would not like to have my name on it even if it is hiding in the
rear of the action cavity. 
Also I have sold the job and purchased the kit, the installation of which is
near complete.
