Thanks to Tony for this. I have recently been convinced by his many praises of this glue to give it a try. I will not go back to anything else for roofwalk attachment. For metal roofwalks this

that the car has roller bearings. I've seen photos of cars with special types of
journal lubricators for plain

3M contact adhesive between 2 release layers 467MP
Anyone else try this (to attach roof walks to plastic models)? I used something like at work 30 years ago.
It has a real acrid odor and may be causing me to itch; I wonder if it ever goes away.

I agree that they aren't ASF Ride Control, but except for the spring seat area their spotting features are close to what the GN used. I am referring especially to the Timken-style capped roller
