Fixing Elevator Trim Tab Bellcrank Mounts

Published by olanandkate on

I decided to go back and fix a mistake I made with the elevator trim bellcrank mounts. I was off when I drilled them and the elevator trim was not within specifications. I drilled out the rivets, threw the mounts away and built two new from scratch. This time they were spot on! I did damage the trim tab rubber gasket on the left elevator so I’m going to have to figure out what to do with that. I’m going to imagine there is some boot I can buy to put on it again… But I got everything almost put back together. I need to re-read the section on how to get the trim tab cables mounted properly again to the bellcrank so that I can then test the elevator trim to see if it is within specifications. I am betting it is now but we’ll see when I get a chance to finish reassembly. Of course I was so busy fixing things that I forgot to take pictures of the work. Here is where I left it tonight.
