Why don't you call WNG?
They are highly invested in these parts, and will work with you to resolve the

the geometry looks good, and I have put more spring in than is comfortable to
play, raised the rep lever until there is a noticeable gap between the height of
the jack, and when I pull the jack out from under, and let it go, it will not
return.
