    Default Forward Lift Strut Fabric Reinforcement Plate

    Hello folks
    Can someone post a picture of.the proper
    Placement of the forward lift strut fabric reinforcement
    Plate?
    I can't find a picture in the.manual or on this forum.
    I think I know how it goes... just want to be sure I'm not missing something.

    Thank you

    Refer to this link in my build thread. I think it may address your question.

    I just cut out some scrap aluminum and epoxied it in place as reinforcement for the fabric. I used polyurethane sealant to seal the edges of the bracket before I top coated with the polyurethane paint.
