Not on my bronco, but my pop-up camper. It has a storage bay on the front of it. A large lid to cover it made from ABS. well the ABS was cracked really bad and leaked. A new ABS one was $700, so I took it down to a local sheet metal place and they built me a replica from Aluminum for waaaaaay cheaper. My only problem now is getting the weather seal to attached to the powder coated surface. Any ideas? J.D. |

you can use the same weather seal adheasive you would use for painted surfaces, like the door seals etc. Pick it up at any auto parts store. |

Cool! So my plan was to somehow temporarily attach the seal to the flange on the camper so that it lines up perfectly. Then figure out a way to mark the outline of the seal on the lid so I know where the adhesive goes. Apply adhesive, shut the lid and allow it to dry. How can I temporarily attach the seal to the flange but not so much that it will overpower the adhesive and is removable? Any tricks to accomplish this? Thanks! J.D. |

I used parts store weather strip adhesive on mine. Apply it to the surfaces and let it dry a little before trying to adhere the rubber. |
