This one will probably go into the queue for a while. I have a few ahead of it.

Do remove the chassis or make certain it is screwed in well... ask me how I know this... nuts, I'll tell ya... went to Janesville, Wisconsin a few years back to pick up a beauty... rented a trailer... too stooopid or lazy to remove the chassis... ONE screw holding in the tuner chassis... screw backed out, chassis rode back, dropped off the knobs behind the doors, and they rubbed the daylights out of the doors and bottom of the inside of the doors on the ride back to Allentown... wish you better results!!!!
