Another way to do it would be to physically remove the top wedge and while pushing the yoke up from the bottom put the wedge deeper into the void there to sustain the yoke angle

This has fixed the bowing issue. I noticed that whatever adhesive was used previously to hold the wedges was not holding very well anymore. I will probably use some sort of RTV since I've noticed that seems to be what is used in other units I have gotten recently.
At this point, I'm trying to figure out if I can fix the issue in the corners. It is very noticeable that if any sort of text or high contrast images are displayed in the top and bottom left, the colors seem to be separated. According to the service manual, this can be adjusted with permalloy strips or probably whatever I can make that's similar enough.
