You are correct. I did take Mark Gs concept and after constructing it to his dimensions changed it. I do not know why what you have built causes the air spring to contort over the mounting plate as you describe. I have not witnessed that phenomenon with my current design. Do you have any photos? Are you using Firestone bags?

I thought you redesigned the original Mark bag system with wider plates and reorient the fittings for protectionin inside the bolt bracket.

Front and rear mount brackets not parallel
and nearly dead-on vertical??? I'm not sure
what was meant by "contorting."
