That should do it! One note to consider...which you may have already...You are well on top of this project. If your hardware bolts, nuts, washers are stainless I would reccomend a graphite grease to isolate them from the aluminum, can cause galvanic corrosion.

Re: Installing an armstrong bracket
 

Thanks for the tip on the corrosion.
I plan on assemlbling it with CorrosionX HD, and hitting them every 6 months. I have had great success with that product on my trailer and other applications.

This is the ONLY stuff that works!

WOW! That stuff looks great. An additional note...I always spray all metals/ hardware, hardtop frame Rods reels & trailer down with Corrosion X or Salt terminator.

Re: Installing an armstrong bracket
 

I have been using Corrosion X - Heavy Duty for years, it's the only stuff I think works. We sell it on my ship store for 13.46 a 12 oz can. I have been fogging my motor with it 4 times a year, and it looks like the day it was made.

I'm with Chuck. Corrosion X is great for a film coat, but for SS hardware into aluminum, Tef-Gel is the stuff to use. I captained an aluminum boat for 9 years, nothing got bolted or screwed without it.

I get nylon washers at my local ACE hardware store. They have a good selection.

Re: Installing an armstrong bracket
 

Im looking to add a bracket with platforms like you have done and was wondering what the cost was from armstrong.

Have you finished installing it and how is it performing now??
