Brief Description: Installed Flange Bushings in Rudder Hinges
Used my bench vise (with Delrin blocks on the jaws for protection) to squeeze the Flange Bushings into the Rudder Hinges. A drop of WD-40 on the bushing before tightening the vise made the bushings press in effortlessly. I then used a 3/16" decimal reamer to enlarge the holes in the Flange Bushings (see photo 2) so that the 3/16" bolt (used later when the rudder is installed in the Vertical Stabilizer) fit in smoothly.
