I know theres a few of you out there getting ready to tackle an A-38, well think before you tighten that last bolt and start to hang the doors, 1. make sure you put the hings on the side they go on before you bolt that side on, put the door latches on also before that side goes on.
2. when you put the sight glass on make sure you push it up as high in the bezel as you can before tightening the bolts, I got the seaside door hung but when I go to close it the bezel (stainless steel) around the sight glass on the cross piece is down to low because of the glass ,so I had to take the add glass out to get to the bolts around the sigt glass lossen them and the bezel in order to push it up so the door can close , then tighten everything down and put the add gllass back in , its all fun eh.
