Installed the wing fuel tanks - 2 hours
Finally the day has come. I've waited a long time to finally get these tanks installed. I kept the wings in the wing stand for installation and it proved to work very well. Installation of the tanks is not exactly that easy. I slipped the tanks up onto the wings and once I was satisfied with the fit and everything was clear, I then used the jacks to help support tanks. I then began to install all of the bolts on the z-brackets. I installed all bolts initially and then began to tighten everything up little by little to ensure straightness. Once I had the bolts installed, I then installed the screws. and more screws and more screws. After that I torqued the z-brackets. Overall I am extremely happy with the fit...Very nice!
