tony b Posted February 6, 2019 Report Posted February 6, 2019 Must be something only found on the bigger grills, as my 23 doesn't have them.
Tucker Posted February 6, 2019 Report Posted February 6, 2019 it is a generational thing, not a size thing

You have to request one now. No one was using them and we all had to re-engineer them to prevent unmonitored air in-leakage.
DennisLinkletter Posted February 7, 2019 Report Posted February 7, 2019 Those SS lined sleeves are for the optional gas burner support rack. It's a little bracket that sits in those holes and supports the big cast iron burner. All 23", 32" and 42" grills still have a gas door assembly. They all now come with the hold closed by wing-nuts design to prevent leakage.

They all now come with the hold closed by wing-nuts design to prevent leakage. That was the easier solution than to re-do your molds to eliminate the door opening. Still give folks the flexibility to retrofit if they ever want to. Edited February 7, 2019 by tony b 1
