duane:

I took a picture of how I set up my shrouds. The picture is not as close uup as I would have liked. To summarize: On my spreaders ther is a little hole inward of the shroud notch . I run a piece of stainless steel seizing wire through this hole with equal lengths of wire above and below the spreader. I then wind the seizing wire around the shroud above and below. Then I wrap the shroud/spreader area with self adhesive wrapping tape. Then I cover this with my spreader boots. I wind the wire pretty tight, but not so tight that it wont slide in the notch a little bit. The same applies to the tape and boot. I hope this helps. Jay
