Ranger Livewell Hinge Repair using screws.

[dartag1829]

Had one of my livewell lids come off over the weekend. I have done this repair on just about all my lides on my Ranger 185. Not a bad job but it works better that rivets for me. Ended up with a mix of phillips and allen screws. Use whatever you want. I do clamp the hinge to the lid when installing the hinge until you get 2 screws in. Lowes or any hardware store has the screws.

I’ve done this to my lid on the front deck years ago, no issues so far. I also have a 185.
