Brief Description:  Door Strut Mount, Handle

1524 - 1800

Position and fit gas strut attach bracket to cabin top with seal in place.

The fit against the cabin top fiberglas was, as expected, poor. Using permagrit tools, surfaces were adjusted for best fit. As I was not satisfied with the bearing surface, I mixed some epoxy/flox/cabo, taped the bracket, applied the epoxy to the bracket and installed the bracket. Hopefully, this method will yield a flat surface for the bracket to attach to.

The Aerosport handles came in the mail today.
