Dave, just a suggestion. If that is a True box, remove the upper door hinge and door (2 bolts). There are two phillips screws that hold the front of the top down, pull the top up and push back or pull forward about 1/2” ( I forget) and the whole top comes off. It will make your life a lot easier. Some perimeter silicone and reinstall.

❄️👍💪🇺🇸 absolutely spot on especially with traffic. Driving in the city of Philadelphia is a nightmare. Go on a call try to find parking then if u don't have the part n u give up ur parking to go get part then deal with traffic n try to find another spot. I've been looking to make a change n focus on business outside the city of filth-adelphia.

Nice work Dave 👍 . You gotta treat yourself to a pair of Knipex Twingrip pliers man trust me , game changer !

One use out of them and they'll instantly pay for themselves 👍.

I've been bit in the ass one to many times with something breaking loose and causing a restriction. Also get yourself a pair of Brute Vampliers. Game changer for getting out stripped screws.

Different angle on the traffic rant, how about replace miles with population? In other words in the old days it took so much time to pass through a curtain amount of population and now that the population has increased it takes longer to travel the same distance but close to the same amount of time to drive through a similar amount of population. In short while your service area needs to reflect the increase in population. I imagine that the amount of people per restaurants and groceries is similar to the old days the distance between restaurants and groceries has decreased as the population has grown. Work on improving your service area for traffic flow.
