this is how the door is supposed to fit?  It doesnt fold in close to wall to the top? what am i doing wrong?

And what are the things called that connect the roof to the lift arms, there is a tab on bottom of roof part that i think is supposed to fit in top of the lift tube....? one of mine is out and need to fix it...

Try and push the door snug against the wall. If that doesn't work, raise the roof just a tiny bit more. My door does the same thing sometimes.

sundawg

will give that a try..

Push outward on the top of the upper door frame until the hinged plate is flat. Secure in place with turn buttons on the sided of the hinge plate.


LIFT ARM COVER?


Are your turn buttons missing? They stick through the oblong hole at each end of the hinge plate, turning the 'button' keeps the hinge plate flat against the wall.

do you know about these? do they slide inside tube?

I know nothing of the goshen system you have! (lift arm cover is the part name for the L&W lkift system)

neither drawing at Goshen shows much detail of the 'D' roof bracket.

It looks like your mounting plate is in the wrong way. The screws go on the top part of the mount so the door can swing up and the mount folds towards the side panel. I did the same thing when I re-did my side panel.

does this look right?

Yes, that looks correct. The plastic clips hold the door in place when it's down. This is the area that was rotted out on our unit, all above the door.

My fleetwood does the same thing,  this is how we handle the problem. While you are facing the door (looking outside) push up on the roof with one arm while you twist the clips in with the other.
