Anybody use a Grizzly G0555 bandsaw and Carter Quick Release?

I bought the Carter Quick Release to use on my Grizzly G0555 bandsaw and I’m trying to determine how this is supposed to work. With the older Grizzly tensioning system, The tensioner floated and the crossbar and quick release kept it in the saw guides. The new quick release doesn’t have anything along the top, so it obviously would come right out. When you put the original tensioner screws back into the holes, they are now longer than before since the older quick release has been taken off. Tightening those screws will lock the tensioner in place, but I’m not sure that’s ideal.

Has anybody done this upgrade/modification? If so, what did you do to solve this? I love the idea of the Carter quick release, and they claim it can be used on the Grizzly, but I’m not so sure… I also bought their ratchet rod, which is an awesome upgrade, but really has to be used with the quick release, you can’t use the ratchet rod without using the quick release.

Anyhow, I’d love to hear what people think on this.
