Prepared the template for the bell crank assembly neutral position. Adapted the length of the F-1091 Elevator pushrod according to the template and elevator in neutral position.
Checked both rod ends bearings have over half the thread engaged making it impossible for a bearing to back off the pushrod if both ends are pinned.
Inserted the MD3614M rod end bearings and fastened with jam nuts to 3/4".
Bolted the rudder to the vertical stabilizer starting with top hinge, then the bottom hinge and finally the middle hinge. Alignment was good. Checked the 35�th sides. Distance measured from the trim inboard angle to the rudder (perpendicular measure) is 2 inches, resulting in an estimated deflection >35��Slightly adjusted the bottom bearing, deflection is still over 35��n the recommended minimum Lucio and I agreed to consider this acceptable.
