    TA, I think you're misunderstanding the part they're talking about (then
    again, maybe I am). I noticed you mentioned roofside to body seals
    before. My impression on this thread was that it was about the rubber
    thingmos that go between the steel supports on a 109SW tub and the
    supports that extend up from the frame. Held on by two clips each. I
    re-used mine since they weren't too brittle. Used Automotive GOOP to
    glue them to the gorgeous, sexy, galvanized finish of my tub supports.

    Anyway, it wasn't my impression that they were talking about any sort of
    seal here.
