Author: "brianbollaert" <bbollaert@...> Time: Wed Dec 15, 2004 5:29 pm PST Link



Hello everyone , recieved this reply fron vans :

Hi Bruce:

thanks for the reply , problem is i don't have proseal , got the qb
wings,
is there something else that i can use? , also on the rv10@yahoogroups
there are several people that have had the prob with the nuts
breaking off,
it was sugested that they are 2 kinds of metal ie stainless bolt ,
and non
stainlees . would it be possible to make shure that the bolt and
metal that
it attaches to are the same stainless , and that the weld is more
secure ,
if this was to breake in flight it would be a several hour fix, and
i
don't think that the risk is necessary . Do you agree?. Also i am
thinking
that i should replace the other also (just in case)

Thanks
