    Picked up a Silver B with a rusty lid

    I just tried this swap at my house. I swapped a Stainless Steel Genesis Gold B top onto a Genesis 1000 lx firebox. I'd say they 'mostly' fit. The Hinges line up perfectly but, When i open it there is a slight rub between the back of the firebox and the back of the hood. Not a deal breaker...

    How do you clean discoloration on stainless steel hood?

    Barkeepers friend actually worked fairly well. It got rid of some of the lighter stains and lightened up some pf the darker ones.

    Move the thermometer to the middle of the lid?

    So just confirmed. The hood from my Silver b with the center thermo fits on my 1000 lx. So, instead of drilling a whole through your hood. Buy a cheap silver b on craigslist and just swap the hoods.

    How do you clean discoloration on stainless steel hood?

    How do you clean surface discoloration off stainless steel? https://imgur.com/gallery/Pya0Y I tried a quick few wipes with 0000 steel wool, but it didnt seem to do much. Is there a different process for stainless steel vs the colored porcelain enameled weber hoods?

    Genesis 1000 and other deep box grills

    I thought it was because more bars held heat better? The more material between the burners and the grates the better the grill should be at holding heat after you open up the lid.

    Our new oasis

    So, did the kids grow up and move out...or did you just claim the backyard back? Either way, it does look amazing, great job!

    Move the thermometer to the middle of the lid?

    I have a 1998 Weber Genesis 1000 with the Side Thermo and a 2005 Weber Silver B with the center Thermo. I wonder if you could just buy an Genesis Silver/Gold/Platinum and swap the lids. The Grates are interchangeable, so maybe the lids are

    New-to-me 2005 Genesis Silver A

    That's interesting, I always through that condiment rack meant it was a Spirit as i've seen so many of them with Spirit written on them. Now i know, older Genesis Grill(2005 only?) can have them also.

    New-to-me 2005 Genesis Silver A

    I notice some of the Genesis Silvers have that Pocket on the front right and others have another table. Anyone know the difference?

    Those that had to drill out the bolt between firebox and frame

    Maybe thats what it was. The inside bolt looked extremely rounded off....but it might have been just a wingnut that lost its wings.

    Unfortunetly, linking to images in you gmail or your google images isn't going to show up on the site. I'd suggest using imgur

    Those that had to drill out the bolt between firebox and frame

    So i'm an idiot. Even though the firebox wasn't threaded...the frame seems to be. So, i turned the carriage bolt around and so the head is on the inside and will put a washer and bolt on the outside.

    Those that had to drill out the bolt between firebox and frame

    What did you replace it with? I read only that its a 5/16th by 2" bolt. I just ran to ace to pick up a stainless steel replacement. But, it doesnt seem that the firebox has any threading. Should i have a stainless steel bolt on the inside? What hardware is used to attach the firebox to the...
