Subject: | Wings, final installation, difficult NAS bolts |
Guys,
I'm in the final assembly of an RV-9A. Any ideas how to get the nuts on
the lower outside NAS bolts?
Did anyone remove the lower brake line fitting in the area for better
access? I've got a few threads of the NAS bolt exposed beyond the
landing gear weldment to gain a little more clearance for the nut.
It also looks like I will have to jam a screw driver under the nut to
keep it from turning when I tightening it - there is no room for a
wrench.
Anyone have an access hole on the side of the fuselage - I know this is
extreme.
Any ideas appreciated...

I had to bend up and grind an open end wrench (buy a cheap one from Harbor Fre
ight) to get to that tight spot.
