Can someone describe or post a picture of what the bridge should look like relative to the surface of the body, mine seems like it is pulled pretty far up with full string tension, so I am kinda worried.

Sounds like you just need to screw the claw in some... here's the Strat setup from Fender, look under tremolo

Hi Bluegrasskid85,

"Fender spec is a 1/8" (3.2 mm) gap at rear of bridge."
