Bay door has some reinforcements to spread the load of the gas struts. Super happy with how solid it feels whereas before the door felt springy as if it were bending on the pivot points. The gas strut mounting plate is welded onto the 1/8" thick angle steel with through bolting to original holes. The plumbing bay doors on each side have the most flex. I will reinforce the other side tomorrow as well as the bay doors for the fuel tank access for good measure. I have 1/2" wide foam gasketing material coming on Saturday for the perimeter of the door skin.
