Title: Yet Another Part Solution Needed
Post by: Reloader on November 11, 2021, 02:04:07 PM
Part number 29 on the attached diagram which is 3XW-2172G-00-00 in the book.

Mine disintegrated in to small chunks when I was removing the battery box.

I could make one very easily if someone has one to measure or trace.

I know I'm really being a pest.

Thanks as always.

I had to make one, I cut a pattern out of cardboard for a test fit. No big deal

Sorry, I didn't keep the cardboard.

Carson City Paul, do you have a pattern?

Thanks Pat.

Wish there was enough of mine to recreate it so I wouldn't have to bother anyone about this.

I don't... I took the pieces of the old one and traced off of it the best I could.
When doing that, leave extra material and trim to fit.

Unfortunately, my pieces turned to dust upon contact.

Thanks for checking.

I will guestimate once at that stage of the re-installing everything.

Was it plastic or some other material?
