How you do intend on getting spoilers off of the posts, too? That would be a bit more difficult than necessary.
There is rule of thickness of the tube contactor? I must have over looked it when reading

Well if i do remember the center plate on the post is 10'' the inside of the tube is 13''. This leaves us with 3'' to play with. the fingers are not in excess of an inch in that regard. meaning with fingers in place we have little bit more than an inch left over. Also a side note the image is upside down.
