Reply to "My Kinematic couplers are beginning to pitch upward as the post bends on kinematic plate"

As I reported in the thread on the Daylight cars, I didn't replace the springs, but took each off and spread it out some to give it more tension.  But perhaps just as important, I replaced the paper (?) washer with a metal one.  The original washer allowed the spring to cant which meant that it was not really holding the coupler level.  I've had no problems since (hopefully!!)
