RV-Listers,
Thanks all for the comments and suggestions. I thought I'd post my
solution in case anyone runs into the same issue. I ended up ordering
new ribs from Vans that didn't have prepunched flanges, then match
drilled them to the skins. They actually gave me a break on the price,
so all four ribs came to only about $15!
If interested, you can see how the fit compares:
Original prepunched rib: http://www.our7a.com/images/20071024-02-tn.jpg
New non-prepunched rib: http://www.our7a.com/images/20071106-04-tn.jpg
Best regards,
Mike Cencula
