Twist the rear box when loose, moves it up or down.

You mean it clears the rear beam when you twist it? I will give that a go, thanks.

Twist the backbox, center section, smaller rubbers, or if all else fails, a bit of rubber around the rear beam.

Does that work then? I thought the rubber would melt/burn?
