Subject:Poptop roof struts, stress lines in fiberglass roof
From:TC
Date:Tue, 13 Sep 2005 13:17:25 -0700

Hi
My fiberglass roof is showing some stress lines around the roof anchor bolts
on the 2 sides where the roof raiser attaches..

I was going to get 4 3/16 aluminum plates fabricated with 4 bolt holes in
the 4 corners
for the 2 ouside plates then 6 bolt holes for the 2 inside plates
I would attach the inside plate to existing roof raiser then drill out new
holes for the four coners ...

just curious if ppl have had the same issue & what they did to fix
if similar fix what size plates did you fabricate ?
