It really surprised me that there are seemingly two different standards but no hint of this on the ACS webpage. I filed out slots in both tabs to within 40-60thou of each side, and can get the bolts in OK. However I also found it sits too low and touches the oil cooler mount. I few degrees of tweak in the brackets should relieve that, but its certainly not ideal. I will live with it for now but order the Van's one as a spare.

I just got a relay from Aircraft Spruce and it looks to be to inch too narrow and there is no overlap for a bolt at all. I checked Vans site in case there is a difference but the picture on there looks to be the same as the one I just got from Spruce. > > Michael > ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 02:39:54 AM PST US Subject: RV10-List: Re: Tire Jack From: "Greg McFarlane" No.....The jack I described is the simple screw with a handle one that can be found in most small/medium sedans, no long levers or heavy hydraulic units that would crash around your baggage compartment.

I have an Avipak box firing wing and tail strobes. If it's just on battery power on the ground, all strobes work fine. Once flying, the strobes stopped firing. If I switched them off and on, I could see the wing tips flashing for one or two sequences, then nothing. When I returned to ground and shut down engine, the strobes were working fine again. My guess is it's somehow connected to alternator output, which would increase at cruise power. However, no issues with any other electronics. Any suggestions appreciated. __________________ Tom Hanaway Boynton Beach, FL RV-10/N518TP Phase I completed 6/12/2012 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=377229#377229 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 04:33:35 AM PST US From: Michael Sausen Subject: Re: RV10-List: Re: Tire Jack Nope, just remember seeing it on his site.
