... for some reason not yet understood.... whcih may relate to clearance issue the bottom bracket was originally installed at a small angle off the the line of the top bracket.... we reistalled the cleaned bracket in the original outline left in the underside of the floor plate.....

I ran out of time for anymore putzing around and called it quit.... but only for this weekend....

Next week we will try to clamp down the brackets on the new floor..... check for clearance before we start drilling holes.....

any comments Phil....?
