Since they haven't removed any rivets on the outside, my guess is that it will require a little persuasion. I would slightly chamfer the leading edge and some WD40. Or we could just wait for the official procedure.

" The new part looks to be more than twice as thick as the origial. How did it fit is the tight space of the old part. How did you get it in? "<br />

The standard 0.063" attach plate (is/should be) sandwitched tight between 6B5-6 upright channel and the 6B5-1 rear seat panel ,as the uprights are fixed to the fuselage side skin joint and the rear seat panel has an (L angle )securing it in position, how can you slide out the old and refit the new one that is 0.125" in the same gap ?.

On my original plate i had to put a small relief cut on the top edge to allow for a potruding revit on the rear wing channel. I used a round file so it wouldnt fatigue...I hope. Is that going to compromise stregnth?
