Brief Description:  Primed elevator pushrods and bellcrank

Primed the inside of the elevator pushrods by taping off the one end and pouring some primer inside. With the primer inside I taped off the other end and slowly inclined and rotated it to coat the entire inside surface.

Primed the interior surfaces of the rod ends.

After allowing the primer to dry I removed a small section of primer from the end of each pushrod with MEK to allow the threaded rod ends to enter.

Dipped the threaded rod ends in primer and inserted them in the pushrods.

Riveted the threaded rod ends to the F-841 pushrod.

Riveted the threaded rod ends to the F-840 pushrod using two rivets on each side. I'll rivet the other holes once the primer inside is completely dry.

Primed the parts of the bellcrank assembly and exterior surfaces of the pushrods.
