The back of the top jaw holding the pan up seems to solve one of the major problem, the OV14’s pan to frame fitment has a bunch of slop. Originally Posted by GREENCOUNTYPETE channel locks don't give me too much credit the top jaw of the pliers wasn't holding it up when I compressed it , but I switched hands to take the picture after I had the dog set so it may look like it yes they do have very wobbly pans , I only have a few of the jumps America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Lance Squires OP trapper L Joined: Jan 2007 Wisconsin	I didn't have much luck with the channel lock but I may need a larger one. I did have luck with vice-grips. I set them ahead of time and put a chunk of lumber (Mchewks idea) under the pan to keep them from firing. I can pull them in my sled and haven't had any fire. Thanks for all your help everyone. 57 years trapping. It's who I am. Every day is still as exciting as it was when I was a kid but a little more work.
