<br>5.OK, ...NEXT QUESTION.......mast -spreader- configuration. The I-17 mast was previously set up on PRE -BEND mode( spreaders back 4 inches, super tight wire). I changed it to a 1 inch bach-tight configuration. This is the only other factor I changed ( ..the other factor being the mast rake foreard 1 hole,...which, I believe did not matter much).
