thanks brotha!

but its a standard size garage door, 8x7 opening. i was gonna get the new door at HomeDepot but checked in Lowes first, i seen a better door, better meaning double insulated, a lot more sturdier and comes with the spring master where it has one over head spring where you can turn it to the number required for the height of the door which was 15.5 pounds of torque and then you can give it more or less by turning the door master torque tension pully as opposed to the one i was gonna get at HomeDepot, Lowes is cheaper with the installation but then again the installation was still more then what the garage door was.

this time i read the directions about 5 times then took everything down and started from scratch. new nailers, and a header. plumed and leveled it, then started on the door, took me several hours to do it, i started about 1pm and didnt finish to about 11pm lol.

but now it works great. opens and closes perfectly, opens and closed straight. no weird sounds, but i did have to make some fabrications like said in the directions, but now i happy
