It seems the design assumes the metal bushing on the AN3 bolt will not move against the mounting plates on the rudder. I plan to fix it with a slightly over sized bushing and hole but I wonder if many others have noted this. -------- Mark Hubelbank N708HU CH601XL Jabiru 3300 Rotec TBI 40-3 carb Sensenich ground adj prop. 70 hr TAF Pictures at photo.hubbles.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=355163#355163 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:24:25 PM PST US Subject: Re: Zenith601-List: rudder bearing play From: Jay Bannister Mark, I don't know if this is a common problem; but I recall seeing a video of Gu s Warren on pre-flighting a 601XL where he cautions to check this joint for excessive wear and play.
