Hi Mario. On the tmcc F7s the bowl plate is incorporated into a larger square plate that fits into the bottom of the frame . I did try moving it to the top of the frame but the truck mounting cams won't reach so that's a no go. I read the thread you posted, thank you for posting that. I guess I am confused though since adding washers as with the f3s won't work for my f7s. Sorry I am just not seeing how you lowered the F7s. (other than cutting down the posts on the shells, am I reading it r8ght on that?)
Looking forward to any other assistance.

You totally can use the just washer, and it will be a good start. on my F7, I need to lower it more than just what the washer could do...

I never got the plate on top to work, but some have.

Thanks,

- Mario.
