That’s absolutely spot on - exactly what I needed! Brilliant help, thanks!
I looks like my window seals were replaced at some point and the channel fitted back on incorrectly….😊.
Ok thanks,
I'll get Gigi's cover off and take some pics. Probably tomorrow as we're just heading to my woods with a load of brash for another wildlife pile. It always surprises me how much you can get into an old Landy. 😄
Hi @Wagon Loon , thanks for your reply. The channel seems to fit vertically at the rear end of the sliding window. See image below. They way it was previously fitted seems to be incorrect as it would not seal correctly.
Anyone else got this channel fitted? Maybe @Wagon Loon you have this?
Once I get this right I’ll get the installation finished.
Meanwhile I fitted the grab rail, as I was fed up tripping over it 😊
Been a bit slow progress of late as I’ve been on holiday. Been desperate to make some decent progress, so ploughed on with the other rear side windows. Got all the lower and upper channels fitted, windows cleaned of old overspray and gunk and...
I’ve been having great fun aligning the roof, side panels, ‘b’ posts and windscreen today 🤬. Had to resort to some tweaking with ratchet straps to get the bulkhead into a better position. Also had to do the same with the ‘b’ posts. I’ll tighten...
I make myself more work by wanting to fix everything. I should go route of least resistance and get a new one. I could then keep the old one and faff about with it to my hearts content later on after the landy is back on the road.
Thought I would take the opportunity to use my son to give me a hand to lift the roof for a trial fit. Not too bad a fit but will definitely need some jiggling around to get a better fit!
Ha, ha - I actually have an air rivet gun, but no compressor any more 😂. Hopefully not too many rivets to install, so just bought another manual one for now.
Followed the same process as the other side to clean, paint, seal and install the window channel. It was a bit more challenging but i got there. Need to go and buy another rivet gun now!
I gave the two stainless rails a polish to get rid of some rusty marks to make them a bit better looking. Although I am surprised that they are still good after all these years. After cleaning them I started riveting them on, then my rivet gun...
Thankfully I managed to buy some pins off eBay - LR Optional Parts and they came in a few days. Great service 👍. I fitted the catches to the glass, gave the glass a clean, painted the round securing nuts silver to make them look a bit better 😊...
