Brief Description:  Right Fuel Tank Mounting

The right fuel tank was positioned on the right wing, checked for alignment with the aft wing skin, then pulled down with straps to mate the fuel tank leading edge skin firmly against the outboard leading edge skin. The inboard end of the tank was pulled down to match dimensions to the rear spar inboard and outboard. The inboard end of the fuel tank skin was then clamped to the aft skin to maintain position while the inboard mounting brackets were prepared. The inboard mounting brackets were slipped over their mounting bolts and tightened in place with nuts. The brackets were then match-drilled to the fuel tank tabs.

The fuel tank was then unclamped and repositioned with the tank trailing edges slipped under the forward edge of the aft wing skins. The tank was then pinned and strapped back into position.

Everything fit exactly as it should without issue or modification.
