Starting to work on my 914, longs likely need to be replaced. I would like to stabilize the frame using the adjustable brace I see some use that is attached To the door opening and has adjustable turn-buckles.
Where can I find some instructions on building them? Tried search and google with no luck. |

Heim joints and threaded bungs to make adjustable braces are cheap and available on Amazon.

Rivnuts and nutserts sound like terms used to pull someone’s leg. |
