When I folded the trailer down, the other one was found. It had landed on top of the back shell in just the perfect position to interfere with the bag seal. Both the lens and the seal appear to be undamaged from their adventure.

So, the gap when folded down is unrelated.
What an interesting ending to a great story! Thanks for sharing

Hi Larry, on your PDF you show a torsion bar without a washer, did that come like that from the factory? I have a used TM and after I read your PDF, I looked under my TM and noticed that most of my torsion bars do not have washers.

Is there any danger to not having the washer? (they all have clamps). If I need to insert the washer, is there anything I should be careful of in removing the clamps so I can insert the washer? It appears that I all I would need to do is loosen the screw on the clamp, slip it off, insert washer and slip the clamp back on and tighten it, or is there some extra step that I am missing?

Thanks for any help!
