Re: [A/S] Safari Stone Guards.
The rivets pulled loose on ours because the piano hinge started sliding down
and left a gap at the top, the wind while driving caused stress which
pulled out the rivets. We stopped and hammered up the piano hinge and
mickey moused a temporary fix with caulk. The Airstream factory rep
suggested a longer bracket to replace it because the hole was now too big
for the rivet. Walt had a terrific fix. Turn the bracket a few degrees,
rivet it in new position, fill old holes. Voila! Lasted the trip from
Ocala to California and back to SC. Still holds tight.
