Working with the wings and emp was a no brainer when it came to deciding what parts were what and the raw stock that was sent to make certain parts was easy to figure out but....
How the heck with the fuse do you know, if you are about to hack up a piece of stock, that it was not meant for something else?
The first things you do on the firewall had me trying to figure this out. The brake line doubler, fuel pump doubler, the little 3x5/8x.063 strips etc. They tell you to make it from .063 sheet and there was only one piece that looked like you could make all this stuff from it so that is what I used. The problem may be that it was meant for something else.
Next was the stiffner that goes below the firewall recess. Looks like this was to be cut from one of the 2ea 6' long pieces of angle but hopefully somewhere else, I do not need a couple 6' long pieces.
I wish vans would list the parts that are to be made from a piece of stock beside the stock description on the shipping list. They do this on some items but not all.
I just hate having to order new stock and pay huge shipping charges on it if I use the wrong stuff.![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
