Aluminum angle used is cut from a Home Depot metals part (3/4" x 3/4" x 1/16" - 3-ft length). Can be constructed accurately enough using a hack saw, drill with bits, and a metal file. Suggest mounting with stainless screw & washers. The #8 pan-head sheet metal screws work well. -
Prop rod may require slight bend outward (passenger side) to adjust tension against slide. Round end of rod (grind or file) where it touches guide to ensure smooth operation. Cut stock guide off using spot weld cutter. Remaining hubs seen protruding from brace in image. Smooth nubs and fill as preferred.
