My GRS Peckett's chopper coupler sits low on the end beam. It will not couple to Accucraft rolling stock. What should the coupler height be on the end beam?

Accucraft rolling stock have two heights for their couplings, maybe they are on the high setting.

The standard height of accucraft chopper couplings is 25mm from the track to the middle ie screw holes. Isle of Man stock has scale height couplings which is about 10mm higher with in the case of rolling stock a option to fix the coupling at the lower height.
