Title: Anybody know about these hinges?
Post by: Bob K on July 04, 2005, 12:51:22 pm
Hi,

I'm assembling my Standard Top and I don't know how these hinge tabs are supposed to be installed (or what their function is...  :upside:  )

Are they supposed to be flat?  One was flat and the other was bent at 90 degrees as pictured below.  ???

If anyone has a machine with this type hinge and could supply a picture, I would be eternally grateful  :down:  .  You can see at the bottom of the picture where it gets installed.

Here's what I'm talking about:



Thanks,
Bob

Bob, my Junior is still in the partially dismantled phase, so I'll keep an eye out, and snap some pics, I don't know how major the differences are between a junior and standard (besides the fact the cooler is larger)
Is there a pin in the hinge? If the body panel pic is one of the sides, maybe it locks the compressor grate cover in place?
