So why is there a need to post it on the forum when it's already on the site itself? :LOL3: :ROFL: http://www.rxrsignals.net/Florida/Orlando/South/
It felt like something I had to do.

Don't know if anyone has noticed... but those newer cantilevers also include a little bump out bracket which is supposed to guide the gate on the way up or down and keep it from getting caught up on the visors of the lights or the cantilever itself.
