Default How to tweak proline strong flat fronts for strength

I am having trouble, I have one box of the new prolines, flat front, but I can't get any strength out of these. Can anybody help me? I have been squeezing with heated pliers, and then clipping the prongs down slightly. The bases have been getting blown out by a 4.0 ttc with no back prongs, just an ITZ dial in it.

Any help, I may post pictures in a bit.

Thanks,
Taylor

Thanks, do you recommend squeezing the whole prong, or just the bottom half?

Just dont be afraid to squeeze these babies with the heated pliers. They can stand it. I clip them and resqueeze again though. What works for some may not for others.
I like a lower base as long as its even and moves well. Another thing is make sure the figure is balanced well and not too foward heavy. He needs to sit more from center of base to the back. Hope this helps.
