LiSTers,
I came up with a method tonight to lower the rear of the Corbin to the lowest position, while maintaining the front adjustment in the middle position. Presumably this will work with the, front highest/rear middle, combination too. The fix involves fabrication of some special spacers to move the rear seat pin receptacles on the seat forward without moving the bracket itself. I've described this in more detail in a series of photos here:

The idea is still rough and in prototype phase only but if it works out maybe we could have Dick Seng's crack machinist make these spacers in aluminum. They could even be made thinner than the 0.25" I used, and then used in multiples, stacked to tune them into the exact location desired.
