Gap on lower windscreen

Thursday, June 26, 2008

 

I have about a half inch gap on the lower aft edge of the windscreen. The entire leading edge fits great, but back here there is this big gap. Vans calls for the bottom edge of the windscreen to fit abutting the top edge of the forward skin. I haven’t quite trimmed out the final 1/4 inch of that, and that may help with this gap. Vans also calls for installing ‘clips’ to hold the windscreen to the skin, before using the fiberglass layouts to close everything up. I’m afraid to clip this, as the half inch would put to much stress into the plexiglass. I think I will post this up on the VAF forum to see if anybody has an idea on what to do with this issue.
