Re: PO has me PO'd
Original frame was a little short, so I shifted the new frame a little so that the hole would be complete

Re: PO has me PO'd
My clecos were just a little to small to grab the hole on the channel so I backed them up with some small washers

Re: PO has me PO'd
This was my set up, hardest part was getting rivets thru the frame and gasket, tight tolerance, used a small file to open up the hole a little. Best method was to hold rivet with needle nose pliers
Used some flat stock as a backing plate clamped in vise  16343937311643301726570970786712 by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/97391199@N06

Re: PO has me PO'd
Received my door locks from Leon( locdoc), what a good member, included paws and clips at no extra price, not included in the original sale
Even marked them "D" and "P", so I couldn't screw that up. If you need help with locks, he is the go to guy, thanks for the help  16352922559695926894555809524072 by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/97391199@N06

Re: PO has me PO'd
Got some more gasket installed, down to the corner, hard part was getting past the bracket for the vent window, you can’t use the sane angle of your push tool, so you have to get both ends started and then push straight down, and hope it grabs, found out that is easier to rotate frame in vise to get the best working position on gasket along with a clamp,of your own design, to keep the gasket in place
Liberal amounts of windex, and gallons of patience  16356051968633727633948790815684 by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/97391199@N06

Re: PO has me PO'd
Yesterday was a total fail trying to get the curved part of the gasket to seat, so I changed up, and attacked it from the gasket end, hoping the curve will fall in place,which it did. Most of the curve is in place, just have to change up the tool as it is too wide to seat the gasket in the curved area
This clamp was invaluable in keeping gasket in place My plan is to let the windex dry, and grind down an old screwdriver and try tomorrow  16359498572501597310992686729244 by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/97391199@N06

Re: PO has me PO'd
Made a brass shoe to keep pressure on the curved area, easier to get the seal in
