Yes, there is a black shim in place for both the top and bottom limb pockets. Now that I have inspected it a lot closer the top limb is actually a little crooked in the pocket. It you are looking at the bow from the front the top limbs rightside is not sitting as deep into the limb pocket as the left side. What can cause this?

There's a rubber o-ring type gasket that is supposed to run around a groove inside the limb pocket, it looks/sounds to me that perhaps it got bunched up under the limb when it was re assembled. Just a thought...
If it was mine, I'd take it down to find out exactly what's going on with it before I shoot it.

RE: Tiller question? Extreme VFT
Thanks Pat.
I plan on taking it back to acorn archery tomorrow. I had them install the NV system on it. I was hopeing it was just something I was overlooking because it is quite the drive over there. Thanks again. Justin

I'm assuming you're talking about Acorn Archery in New Castle, PA.
I'm tenatively going to be visiting there some time tomorrow afternoon. Maybe we'll be able to meet up... Heck, if it's needs any parts, I'll have them with me, unless it needs a riser...

RE: Tiller question? Extreme VFT
Hey Pat, since you are going to be in PA today then how about you drive another 4 or 5 hours across state and come visit some of the local shops over here....

RE: Tiller question? Extreme VFT
It looks to me like you hit a tough spot in the limb bolt and think you are bottomed out.
Sometimes they can get tough to turn - I say crank it hard and see if it moves.
If you break something just hand it to Pat
