Subject: | Removing outboard wing panel |
I removed all of the connections and I can't get the outboard wing panel to move
even a fraction of an inch.
Any ideas?

Subject: | Re: Removing outboard wing panel |
I've seen several that had corrosion in the socket joint. Penetrating oil (Mouse
Milk?), applied through the gap between the wing panels, and patience is all
I can offer.
I did some work at a shop that claimed to be Grumman experts, and they had this
rig with a SLIDE HAMMER that they claimed was the way to remove stuck wing panels.
Scared the @#$%^&* out of me. They were very proud of it.

If the penitrent (mouse milk) isn't working then maybe some heat lamps on
the out tube and some dry ice on the inside tube with at least two people
working the panel
to break it loose,it has been my experience once it moves lots of lube and
time will get it off. Hal B

Heat seems to help the penetrating fluid (Kroil is excellent) to wick in
to the joint. You might also try placing a 2x6 across the end of the
spar and try "bumping" it inward just a bit to loosen the bond. Would
only take 1/32" and then maybe you could rotate it.

I said "bump" it , not hammer it. Finesse. You won't hurt the spar
with the wood against it!

OK, here is what I did.=0A=0A=A2 Soaked the joint as much as possible
with penetrating oil.=0A=A2=C2-Chocked the tires=0A=A2=C2-
Got a block of wood and placed it on my rolling bench/table. =C2-Covered
said block with a folded towel.=0A=A2=C2-Positioned the bench/table
such that the blocks/towel were on the leading edge, just on the edge of t
he outboard panel (OP) near the gap. =C2-Chocked said bench/table=0A=0A
=A2=C2-Located a block of wood on the bottom of the trailing edge o
f the outer edge of the middle panel so that the wing could not go down.=0A
=0A=A2=C2-Pressed on the trailing edge of the OP. =C2-Nothing.
=C2-=0A=A2=C2-Got a helper. =C2-Nothing.=0A=0A=A2=C2-Go
t another helper. =C2-Nothing.=0A=0A=A2=C2-Got large screw driver
s to cross pry the trailing edges against each other. =C2-(does that make
sense?)=0A=A2=C2-Had helpers push and pull while I pried. =C2-Go
t the panel to move about 1/8 inch.=0A=0A=A2=C2-Reversed all the bl
ocks and pry bars and started over.=0A=0A=A2=C2-Repeated the proces
s about 1000 times until the OP was able to rotate with just 4 people pushi
ng and pulling.=0A=0A=A2=C2-Hooked up a come-along to the tie down
and added just enough load to tighten the cable.=0A=0A=A2=C2-4 hour
s later, I've got the OP about 1/4 inch out. =C2-I'm exhausted.=0A=0A=0AW
hat I wrote doesn't tell the whole story, but you get the gist.=C2-=0A=0A
