The "Tweaking" continues.....So....Now that we are getting the sharp edges smoothed off on the car......And since this is my first Nomad.......I'm getting an education in Nomad related issues....I've learned that all Nomads leak water in the Tail gate ........and that after a period of time the lift gate (rear window assy) frames bend over time due to the stress of the torsion rods in the factory set-up..So...Once I found out about this issue, everytime I looked at the car I noticed that dam bent Lift Gate......This Nomad already had the rods taken out, but the Lift gate was already bent.........I already had removed the stock mechanical assy that held the gate in the open position with some gas strut assy's made by Mike at Madmooks Nomad parts.........I took the Lift gate off and sent it to Madmmooks for straightening.....I didn't have any good pic's showing the bend before.......But....Here are some before and after picture........Mike straightened the unit and didn't damage the chrome at all..........Great job Madmooks
