     I've seen the competition manual too, but I'm not certain if 
     Kastner meant to swap just the spring or the spring and its 
     associated 'mounting box' on top of the diff.
     
     If you put on the mounting box, that will allow the spring to 
     move 'up' in conjunction with the bottom wishbone on the 
     rotoflex.  I think that it will be working as a quasi 
     double-wishbone setup then (at least for part of its travel).
