Found a workaround for now. Anyway here's a photo of the shim package!

Actually spacers along the top frame, which I made from 2024t3 aluminium tubing

With zero experience in aircraft construction, in 1974 I replaced a wooden door on my BL12-65 with a metal one that I made with 025 aluminum sheet metal and pop rivets.
It closed perfectly from the first time I put it on. I remember that it was a very easy job and without major problems.
At that time I only knew how to fly, and I had no idea how airplanes were made and particularly my Taylor.

Not sure now if .025 or .032.

I built my frames to fit my doors when I recovered, that way you know what does and doesnt fit. Tim
