Re: [DML] Re: Roof support repair, was Torsion bars removed.



Stainless Steel is a good idea. I've had mine rebuilt, too.
But don't forget to have it powder coated afterwards as it 
will touch the other two sheet metal parts (contact corrosion !) 
that are glued on and can't be take off...normally.

Didn't this all start because of your T-Bar and the rear sheet
metal part ? the roof support is made of three different pieces
and only the large middle section can be taken off. Even if your 
rear part isn't glued on anymore - this will be very hard
to make without the original tools. The middle section can be 
done, but does it make a sense ? is it rusty ? inside ?

Before you start all that work I suggest to look at some pictures 
first, maybe you don't really need to take it apart completely. 
Let me know, I may have some pics.

By the way - mattresses are good.
