Anybody have any tips on installing original type drip rails. I'm having a hard time snapping on the outer rail.

Default Re: Snapping on drip rails?

you have to take your time work them into shape good luck u can do it. PS Im looking for a set of good usable Original 1931 Tudor sedan Rain Gutters. Must be 65" Long. Not 1929 they are a little to short for the 1931 because they are trimed a little at the front on the 1929 that used the drip rail corner / tip in the front corners. Please let me know if you or anyone can help Thank you Justin 661 944 0356 please leave a message if I’m not in.

I use a big ole rubber hub cap mallet, first work the top ledge in by hand then give it a good wack to snap on the bottom with a downwards hit. Put some painters tape to protect the finish

I have a very nice pair of original 30-31 gutters, with one tack strip. Email or pm me for info
