Finally got to fitting the rear wing, BJ8.
As per previous post I had to compromise lining up the swage line. It's good now but I needed to shave off the door bottom about 3mms to get the outer sill (rocker) to fit and enlarge the A pillar cover bolt holes to maximise adjustment range. Enlarged the door jamb holes as well to allow further adjustment as well as shaving a fraction from the lower hinge margins. What a palaver!
I don't know how I'm going to straighten out the bends on the upper margin of the horizontal alu trim piece without leaving residual marks and then rebend it. How is this done?
And:-
Above is from the body parts list, plate C1 page BC3. Part 19 is shown as a threaded plate. I can't find one. Is this relevant to BJ8 as the book deals with both BJ7 and 8? What is it?
Cheers AJK
