Making Gaskets #1

One of the design flaws this truck had in this area was that it had no provision for protecting the painted metal surfaces from being rubbed raw by adjoining pieces. Another was the silly idea that the lights could get a good ground via all of these rubbing parts.

I've made and installed rubber gaskets to prevent this, like I did for my heater. I soldered a new dedicated ground wire for each bucket so as to assure proper grounding. This gasket prevents the bucket from getting scratched by the mounting bracket it attaches to.
