Thanks one more time!

Thanks Fred! My real dilemma is that I wash my own cars so in the Winter it's done in the garage. I'm concerned about water being trapped under the Mats.

Your thoughts are what I'm thinking of doing. Thanks for your time.

22x29 attached garage used as a hobby DIY work area. I have 750 sq. Ft. Of Epoxy-Coat color coat/clear coat material. Floor has been Diamond ground to perfection and all blames/cracks etc. repaired with Epoxy paste. Weather has been too wet here on Long Island but Saturday looks good if not...

You need to do your homework on all of what you want to accomplish. The springs on the bar are Tensioned by wire size and length. The weight of your door will dictate the proper springs via a chart. I just installed a Liftmaster 3800C and am very happy with the results. Al W.:beer:

Kapt, I'm doing the research on the same task as you. I think you should just change out the drums to 4" and be done. Al W.

Bigger is better!!! Al W.

Thanks Jim, Went to the local Ironworks and pick up exactly what you specified for a total of $30.00. Your help is appreciated. Al W.

Thanks Guys! Jim gave me the info. I was looking for. Local Garage Door outfit has a pricey reputation Tim, and I save my money for Beer. Al W.

Thanks Don, I'm thinking that regular Black Pipe from the local plumbing supply will work if the demensions are correct. Al W.

Thank you both very much! Al W.

I'm converting from Springs and Cable to a Jackshaft tensioner. I cannot find a source on the internet for the iron bar that the Tension springs attach to. Can anyone supply me with a source? Thanks, Al W.:bowdown:
