<p>Jan, I am considering your steel bungee for my 701. Are additional support doublers needed to strengthen the support of the cross member at the top of the steel bungee system on the 701 as are seen on the images of the 750 installation?</p>
<p>Thanks, Vann Covington</p>

<p>We only did one 701 installation. Would be nice to get pictures from someone in the field that did one</p>

<p>Hi Jan,</p>
<p>I went to the airport to install the Viking Steel Bungee. Started around noon and worked my way into some problems...</p>
<p>The flat retainers bars from Viking are not long enough and the holes where the bungee retaining pin (7F7-6) should go thru dont line up.</p>

<p></p>
<p>The straps for the CH701 should be LONG or SHORT ??? The ones I received are SHORT (13 inches) are they</p>
<p>the right ones ??</p>

<p>The latest top spring support has another set of holes further inboard for the 701. This should work for you. If your airplane is different than the 701 we have here at the airport, then yes, outside would work equally well.</p>
