I have some 3 x 3 pads so next experiment is to get the pads out from the footers and underneath the component itself. In most cases the combo of a 2 x 2 and 3 x3 will be taller than the existing footers. Have to be a little careful on some components not to block cooling holes.

Sounds good, John. Do your experiments and report back.
