the foil wrap squeazes down to practically nothing once it's tight. you can hear a few bubbles popping when you thighten the bolts. as for the aluminum channel, it's pretty badly corroded, but not too brittle, really. i was thinking about cleaning it really good and trying to seal the area where it touches the steel plate at the rear. that's what causes most of the corrosion. i may see if i can get it fabricated, though. it would be a shame to go to this length to restore the trailer and leave such a bad piece at teh center of it all.

now if the SUN would only come back, i can get some stuff DONE around here!
