To make the installation/removal of the blue shell more thought-free in the future, we took some measurements of the cart height and bubble level reading in a configuration where the blue shell slid off with no scraping of the mylar on the vapor shield.
Measuring to the floor from the 4 corners of the blue cart, we got 7", 7" on the starboard side, as mounted on the plane, looking forward. And 7 1/8", 7 1/8" on the port side. ~7-8 threads were showing on the leveling jacks.
The blue can had been completely level in the horizontal position with triangle screws and all bolts attached. When it was removed the vapor shield was angled up slightly, seen in the bubble level reading below.
