Check out the new windshield braces I put in tonight. I made them. Everything stainless. The nutserts are the ticket! Sorry the pictures suck. Camera on phone is convenient.

Very good! And you made them yourself. Doesn't get much better than that!

JD, great drawing....but, how about the nutserts? Are they McMaster-Carr parts also? Can you provide us with their description and P/N. If you would add them to the drawing, then everything required for a workable set of braces would be detailed all in the one document....:xyxthumbs:
