Hello, I just bought a 46 cub and want to find a proper latch for the hinged window on the right side. My cub has two wing tanks (long legs). The current set up is a small arm to hold up the entire window near the rear hinge. This is putting a lot of stress on the rear hinge when flying with the window open. The arm is there to prevent the window from contacting the fuel drain in the right wing. So, I got out the unibit and drilled a hole in the right window. I'm now looking for some type of window latch to put on the wing, so I can latch the window in the center and have the latch hold it up(standard set up). I live close to univair and bought the window latch from them. But its looks like the latch is made to fit on to a rib without a fuel tank next to it. Any ideas for a window latch would be appreciated.
I'm thinking of joining the cub-club to get info from there cub clues, hoping that will help as well

Thanks

Jeff
