Brief Description:  Install Oil Door

1600 - 1800

Fabricate two button latch strike plate.

The plate was fabricated from .125 6061 aluminum and spans the width of the oil door opening. This will spead the load of the single point latch across the oil door opening flange. Standard techniques were used.

I wanted to be able to adjust the tension on the latch striker so the inner two holes were drilled and counter sunk for #6 screws. Four stainless steel shims, 2 x .018 and 2 x .025, were fabricated to span the center holes. Initially a single .025 shim was installed.

Verify door fit.
