Aluminum - Sides or Top First?

Postby fornesto » Wed Apr 06, 2005 1:50 pm

I'm approaching the aluminum install. Is it better to install the sides or the top first? I'm thinking mostly about ease of trimming?

I did the sides first. That way most of the the trimming and filing can be out of the way before installing the top. The top was 48" across so only the aft end had to be trimmed. George.
