Many thanks for all the good suggestions. The beauty of it was the parts just arrived and were correct so it wasn't all bad. I just installed the plastic skirt and it fit fine. I just hate a rip off. Now I'm ready to hit the road once again.

Now, I'm not saying the box did not cost the shipper $45 in actually UPS shipping and they charged you $60, but that is a discussion for another day........
