Brief Description: F8104 L and R forward skin support ribs
I messed up when I riveted the top skin the other day. For some reason I had it in my mind that the F8104L and R ribs were attached to the skin with blind rivets, unfortunately that isnt the case. Thankfully I was able to remove the attachment bolts for the Rollbar and move it forward enough to rivet them using solid rivets.
