norcold/tundra

If you have the teak top shelf above the reefer check the tundra or nova cool. They are much better than the norcold. they both fit into your present location better than a new norcold and are much more reliable units. that said my norcold ,which is original, is still going strong.

gaskets

Bob are you sure its glass? If so i would be very tempted to swap that strainer out for one thats solid metal with a strainer basket inside it. I know that years ago Wilcox-Crittendon made strainers with glass.
