Replace or not to replace...

[Homerr]

I found one good stringer (out of 4) in my project. There appears to be no rot, and it seems to still be bonded to the glass.<br /><br />I'm replacing the other stringers, since they were shot.<br /><br />You think I should leave well enough alone or go ahead and replace it too?<br /><br />It is an outside stringer.<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />H.

I would replace it while you were in there.

Kinda what I was thinking Bait...<br /><br />Leave well enough alone. It's in real tight, and I intend to run cross pieces anyway between the stringers (something factory DIDN'T do)<br /><br />Thanks guys,<br /><br />H.
