Tom and TS Flightlines shipped the steel lines he fabricated. We have been working on teflon and steel lines for the fuel runs. It took a few attempts but these steel lines are right on. After test fitting the lines I bundled everything together for shipment back to TS Flightlines. Tom will now fabricate the final lines.
Next was continued work on the elevator push tubes (Vans calls them rods?) I needed to make final adjustments to ensure a few things.
1. The bell crank in image two was vertical after all adjustments. 2. After all adjustments there was more than 1/2" the threads were engaged at each end of the push tubes. 3. There was a 5 degree forward tilt in the stick with the elevator at the nuetral position.
I also ran the strobe wiring to the back of the aircraft. Tomorrow is install and torque the HS and VS so I can start to finish the aft portion of the aircraft. Still need to finish the aft position light and trim motor wiring.
