Pete,
BTDT. I found the easiest way to do the job alone is to use a 4" C-clamp
carefully placed inside the rear of the wing opening w/ the doors open.
You need to do both sides at the same time. You will see the leg of the
WS frame through there. Clamping the leg to the sheetmetal shield will
allow you to insert the bolts. I also found that using small block Chevy
header bolts works great because the head is only 7/16" with the 3/8-16
thread. Just make sure you get the correct length. Moss has good
suggestions in their catalog also. Especially if you've replaced the
lower rubber seal. Lastly, the seals alone will not keep out the water.
You will have to use a good quality automotive sealer. I don't like
silicone sealer on windows or rubber gaskets.
