Brief Description:  Install Instrument Panel

1500 - 1830

Begin installation of instrument panel today. I clipped the packing tie wraps on the wiring harness to verify wire lengths and LRU positions. I determined that the best way to proceed was to remove the connector plates from the center rack. This was easily accomplished by loosening eight small screws and sliding the plates off of their keyhole mounting holes. No wiring was disconnected and no rack was removed.

Next, I installed the CF panel with clecos. Once installed, I installed the center panel insert containing the racks, in it's position. This facilitated the fabrication of a rear rack support bracket. This bracket will secure the forward portion of the racks and remove stress from the center panel insert caused by the previously cantilevered racks.

The bracket was fabricated from 063 sheet and 063 x .75 x .75 angle using standard techniques.

The bracket was then secured to the racks with #6 hardware. The sub panel was then match drilled to the bracket for #6 hardware.

Finally, the GTN 650 was inserted into the rack to verify fit.
