I was told to first reduce lift in the light(or rising) wing, put a thin
washer(1/32") under the lower wing bolts on the wing that is rising. If
its too much try a 1/64".
If that aint enough try a 1/16" washer. If that aint enough, leave the
shim in the light wing, and now shim the upper bolts on the heavy wing
to increase its lift..
Some require 1/8" washers...
