[Birchwood]

Thanks for the replies, Brent I think the rear header I am referring to is the #8 rib...I thought it was one piece but according to Les Andrews book he calls it rear header and support shows 2 pcs. Are these pieces available without buying the whole kit? Those are the pcs. that crumbled, the rest I think I can recreate because I have enough of the rest to get measurements from.

Mister Moose thanks for the offer, we have ash available here from some of our suppliers, I'm sure it would be costly for shipping I live in Birchwood Tennessee about 30 miles north of Chattanooga. But I do appreciate the offer.

Thanks again
