RE: [DML] Door Piston Lwr Support Brackets

["Rob Grady" <rob@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Matt,

I never wrote up an installation guide for the plates as it is not much
harder than just R&Ring the originals if the fiberglass is good and drilling
two more mounting holes. When we do the next set I'll try to find the time
to take pictures and do a step by step procedure. In the past I only pointed
out their availability as we're still the only vendor making them. I
probably shouldn't mention that as it's one of my few fixes not already
copied by some other vendor!

Rob Grady,

P.J.Grady Inc.

I also have this problem on my driver's door.  I also seem to be
having problems searching the archives :(  This might be just my
cluelessness though :)
I need to find out how to install these re-enforcing plates.
Can I get a point in the right direction to search, maybe a keyword or
something.  I've tried searching already and it just brings up this
latest post.

Lost in cyberspace,
Matt Smith
