Brief Description: Cabin Frame Roll Bar 14: Closing the gap
After I got the forward half drilled and clecoed I noticed the width and shrunk a little. I remember checking it when I put the forward channels on. I wonder when this happened.
At this point things are only clecoed and really only the plate is holding this arch ridgid in its width. So I reversed the clamps on one of my bar clamps and used it so spread the arch. Worked great. Arch moved open slightly, closing the gap and getting right back to the exact width.
Better pay attention to this width when I rivet the plates to the channels because I can see some play there that highly affects this width.
