5) When you are sure that everything is
aligned correctly, mix up a generous
amount of Flash 30 Minute Epoxy. Ap-
ply a thin layer to the mounting slot

mounting area. Apply epoxy to the bot-
tom and top edges of the filler block and
to the lower hinge also. Set the stabilizer
in place and realign. Double check all of
