The wire frame that holds the monitor in place in the Jungle King type of Taito cabinets -- is there a trick to getting them back onto the monitor after you've taken it off? Removing them is slightly tedious, but for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to get it back in place, as it keeps getting snagged on the side of the monitor frame. Any tips for this?

I put a towel down on a table. Then laid the monitor face down on the towel. Then put the wire frame on. It's a lot easier to maneuver to the wire frame than the monitor. Once it is all bolted together, install the entire unit in the cabinet,
 
That's how I do it, but it seems that the frame just won't fit over the monitor frame without significant force being exerted just to get it a few inches onto the frame.
This cabinet initially had a g07 monitor and tube that was on a cobbled together K4900 and Sampo frame. I swapped it out for a G07 frame, and it just did not want to go back on. I wound up having to disassemble the monitor frame by taking out the center chassis mounting section, affixing the sides to the Taito frame, then screwing the center part back to the side walls of the g07 frame, after first having loosened up every other mounting screw to give things some wiggle room.
