[QUOTE="AviatorJones, post: 499066, member: 33494"] Wow. Thanks for the detailed response. Bonus points for finding the part numbers. How do you deal with the space due to the slant of the ribs? Do you just rivet a close to the bottom of the angle as possible and let the cross member stiffen it so it doesn't wiggle side to side? Or is it possible to just bend the lip down to make it level? Thinking about the gap between the top of the angle and the rib in the pic below. The pic doesn't show it well. Roughly 3/8" gap there with this piece of 1" scrap I had. [/QUOTE]
