Pietenpol-List: Tail bracing turnbuckles

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: Ken
Is there any reason to pick one placement of the turnbuckles on the tail bracing wires over another. In other words, does it make any difference if the turnbuckle is on the V stab fitting or out on the H Stab fitting. The plans show them out on the H stab, but it doesn't seem like it would make any difference to me.Thanks for the inputKirkKirk HuizengaCommunity Expertkirk.huizenga(at)moundsviewschools.org651.482.8203________________________________________________________________________________Date: Tue, 18 Apr 2006 12:52:30 -0400

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Science-engineering and accuracyBill, If you're talking about accuracy, may I point out from memory that BHP recommended the center leaf of a Model T front spring. That would be #4 as there were 7 leaves. Up or down #4 is the center.Submitted by a southern smartass for the sake of accuracy.Still in Louisiana________________________________________________________________________________Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: Tail bracing turnbucklesDate: Tue, 18 Apr 2006 13:07:17 -0400
