Hi, Dave:
    I've also had this experience, but the problem isn't the brackets.  You'll have to add shims to the bottom of the center brackets.  I'm sure you'll find the hammer rail is very straight.  You can also shave down the "feet" under the end brackets... NAH!  Anyway, even if you get another set from Y.C.  you'll find yourself in the same situation.

Speaking of YC....

I booked five hours today for replacing a set of Young Chang action brackets and regulating the action. After replacing the outside brackets, I discovered that the inside ones were the wrong size!   Well, that took care of the days income.

AT least that gave me plenty of time to watch the end of the Tour of California, Stage 2 bike race that finished about 2 blocks from my aborted job...

After the race ended, I headed 3 blocks east to a friend's house to tune her Acrosonic and sample some 20 year old Bordeaux. Halfway through the treble, I heard her say, "Todd, NO!," Todd being the cat. I looked down and saw that the side of my toolkit that holds pliers and stringing tools had been unceremoniously filled up with an odiferous yellow fluid from Todd.

Some days one should just stay in bed.
