I recently had a problem with (some) defective Bellville springs in my ALON MLG strut assemblies. My LH wingtip was several inches low. UNIVAIR replaced the new, defective springs and I had them installed. Each strut had a shim at the top, which was retained. My tail height is precisely 76 inches on both sides, but my LH wingtip is now 3 inches high, causing fuel to vent from the RH filler cap , while taxiing, when both tanks are full. Would removing the LH shim, or adding one to the RH strut correct the low wingtip problem - without adversely affecting tail height?

Perhaps Bill Coons or another Couper with experience with this situation could advise.
