Also, the pivot pins are not an issue either as I moved them to align with the center pin of the lift lever.I think the tray elevation and magic line will work ok. Thanks, Gene In theory, I like the concept of the tray pivoting in the same place as the underlever centers, as it minimizes the slide friction of the underlevers on the tray. This does however change the leverage of the return spring. I too replace the leaf spring at the treble end with a coil spring between the alto and tenor, but have found it to be inadequate when I relocate the pivot accordingly. Someone (maybe David Love) recommended adding a second spring. Where does the second spring go and how does it affect the feel of the pedal?
