I tried some 3/8 O-rings on a couple of the bolts. No washers at all. I could only get about 25 lbs of torque before the rings were about to "pop".
But I am thinking here, that cover is HEAVY, has NOT been removed, perhaps ever, doesn't leak at all now. I imagine if I removed ALL the bolts. it would still be tighter than a rick and be very difficult to pry off there. Do I need much hold down torque on it?
The SMTA IS inside now and will stay that way, as it is now all painted and assembled. With four tractors, and two pickups, A Geo Tracker, Cub Cadet, Honda M/C, Honda 4 Wheeler, snowblower, pressure washer, 6 indoor dog runs, and one pole barn, which has built in domicile, some things just gotta live outdoors.
