Forgot to share, been so busy cooking on my new favorite setup. Yes it sits high as obviously a 26" bowl wont sit the same as a 22". It makes for the perfect cooking height for me (5'8") Everything is still functional on both kettle and cart. Hope they decide on another batch of brackets as i can never go back to cooking on a 22". Polished it all off with some handles from Zav and there is a port hole drilled for temp probes. As it is not a gas assist model it has the perfect shelf hidden below the lid to keep my temp controller safe.
