[VAC] Re: Clekos and Belly Pan Repair Methods

["Tom" <tmeeker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You need to order and purchase some of the *draw type cleckos".  These will
help suck in the skin around these curves as long as it's not drastic AND as
long as the holes that were drilled out for the original rivets still are
roughly the same size.

You will have to work from one end slowly towards the next and then go back
and retighten the fasteners again where you started.  Sometimes it helps to
get one edge down pretty good, then work from the middle edge outwards to
the top, center and bottom.  If you can do all of these at the same time it
works nicely.

How many arms did you say you had?

Whoever used a jack and a 2x4 to accomplish sheetmetal work on your trailer
is not a metal mechanic.  The proper use of tools and equipment will NOT
result in damage.
