With that in mind, what keeps the bottom front of the side panels from rattling against the frame rails? I see there is only the back wingnut and front spring to hold the panels in place??? Is it just pressure against the rubber weatherstripping on the "heat baffle" (IH-106501-C94) that dampens this movement? I've never heard this thing run so I'm guessing at what I think should be, or what makes reasonable sense (this is my first Quietline involvement). I have a 127 with a tiller (and spring assist) but the hyd lift spoke to me! Hope I like the 1450 as much as I like the narrow frame for the simplicity.
Here's a few pics of before and progress to a week ago:

Nothing! They just sit in at the bottom, attach together with the spring at the top front and are bolted solid with the screw at the back. Side panels don't seem to rattle, it's the hood that does all of the rattling around.
