Also, from the web site pictures it looks as though the door sills have to come off... But yours look like they went on under it... Do you have any more pictures? = ) Anyone got any pictures of long stiffening work being done? A picture is worth 5000 words... = ) Thanks all!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Eric |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Eric Here are those pictures I was referring to. Eric     See how the bottom of the door sill has been removed and then re-attached... Does it have to be done or will it go right under the current sill edge? My door sills are good and dont need to be replaced. Just want to stiffen the chassis. Thanks again all. = ) Again, love those pictures.  |
