I need some serious help

I can get you up and running but you have to do exactly what I say. Stop following your directions.

Do these commands and tell me how far the nozzle is from the bed:

G28
G1 Z3
G1 Z0 F100

With these commands and my manual z home set correctly im right where i should be for paper tension.... maybe just a tad high
could probably stand to lower it .1 or .2

Great. Now use G1 Z0 X0 Y-50 F300 and tell me what the height is there.

it doesnt go quiet as far, still got a gap maybe .5 ish

Would it be better if I set my distance higher then i actually have that way i can see the difference it takes to get tension on a sheet of paper at each point?

No you can just eyeball it for now.

If you have the same height issue (too high) at G1 Z0 X-30 Y-50 then you need to make your smooth rod offset smaller by 1mm. I believe with RC Marlin it's: M666 Rxxx. Don't forget to save to eeprom with an M500 and do a G28 before testing again.

do that from repiteir? yes?

Oh you use Repetier? Yes, but the commands are different. Do you have Repetier-Host? You can change the eeprom settings with it really easily. You'll still have to G28 after you make the changes though.
