    add a leaf or take the other one out

    Springs are not welded in place. The perches should not have to be moved at all unless you are going spring over. You can remove the other leaf to even it out but, springs are pretty cheap to buy or someone going to lift springs many give you some in good shape. Caster won't change unless...
