Hey Tim,

I'm kinda hazy on the details since it's been over 10 years since I
sold my Astir, but IIRC, there was another adjustment that didn't
require such drastic measures. The drag spar engages into the locking
collar through an adjustable sleeve. This sleeve is threaded and
allows you to essentially shim the wing out. At least, that's how I
remember it.

I'm assuming you've already looked through the maintenance manual...

So, I found a copy of the maintenance manual online, and it's
essentially useless on this topic. Assuming you're in the US, a call
to Grob in Blufton, Ohio is probably worth it. Again, I do remember
there was another solution involving the carry-through, but without
having one in front of me to look at, I can't recall the details.
