Brief Description:  Install Steps & Prep For Floor Riveting

Installed aluminum bushings into each step, using nylon strapping and plywood stick to push each into place deep into the tube. Bushing will help prevent bolt from squeezing the step mounting into oval shape which would allow step to loosen.
Installed step with AN3-21A bolt as Van's didn't provide the AN3-20A bolts called for by drawing. Used an additional washer to make up the slightly longer bolt. (Will order replacement AN3-21A bolts from Vans for use as called for in Aileron bell cranks on page 23-8.)
Clecoed rear underseat floors (F-1024) into place, and then identified that the rivet holes in the floors under the F-1023B baggage floor angles were not dimpled by the Quick Build group (even though all other holes in the floors had been properly dimpled, as well as the corresponding holes in the ribs below the floors). Removed the right floor, dimpled, and re-installed floor with clecos.
