Capen" Subject: RV-List: Scrap-bin scrounging Fellow builders, Anyone out there have a chunk of .040 aluminum that is approximately 3" x 15" in their spare/scrap bin that they are willing to send to me? Willing to reimburse shipping and owe you an adult beverage at a common event!

You just cut it off at the sub-panel and move it over, and reattach it to the sub-panel. Use a piece of angle cut to the right length, and rivet it to the rib and then sub-panel. I don't have a picture handy, but it's pretty easy. I hope this helps. I don't know anything about AP.

I needed a new mulit piece panel to replace the original from AP. Stein cut a three piece replacement for me that fits perfectly. Not cheap, but worth every dollar.
