Subject: RV-6A brake squealing=0A=0A=0AHas anyone had a problem with squeal
ing brakes during use? One side seems to be more prone to this than the oth
er. New pads at annual in Sept too. This is not new. I have had it for q
uite some time, years. I read a thread recently about securing the brake
lines to gear legs in more than three places, say 5 or 6. Seems to chang
e depending on air pressure in tires too.=0ALarry , RV-6A, at 2R2, near Av

I'm working on my -7A wings and am to the point of drilling the Z-brackets.
The problem is that the Z-brackets seem to be a little bit too high. I've
got about 3/64 gap between the trailing edge of the tank skin and the leading
edge of the main skin. Does anyone know if this is normal or will it close
up when screwing the tank to the spar? I can close the gap by pressing the
tank towards the spar with 30-40 lbs of force, but I can see that it flexes
the baffle slightly in the process.
Thanks,
Mike

I had this situation. I believe it was Ken at Van's that said a little gap
creats a better line for paint. He said that when the aft forward skins
butts up to the forward edge of the aft skins that there is a greater chance
of the paint cracking along this line. My plane isn't painted yet so I can"t
verify his claim.I know that some have gone to extordinary lengths to get
them to butt with no space.
