Tonight was a relatively short night, but still making forward progress. The F-01453A-L & -R Muffler Shroud Doublers were installed in the Part 4. The F-01465 Muffler Hanger Angles were also prepared and Akzo primed in Part 4. During this sessions, the Hanger Angles were riveted to the F-01453-L & -R Muffler Shroud Sides (circled below) using AN470AD4-5 universal rivets.
Next, the two F-14108A Fuel Pump Brackets had four K1000-08 nutplates (two on each Bracket) riveted to them for later installation for the Electric Fuel Pump. Then, the Brackets were riveted to the F-01454 Muffler Shroud Ramp as shown below. The outer two holes on each Bracket DO NOT get riveted at this time.....only the four middle holes. Each hole received AN426AD3-3.5. Here is an overall view of the installed Brackets.....
.....and a close up. I backriveted the eight rivets in this step.
Lastly, this is the “bottom” side of the Ramp showing the manufactured heads of the rivets installed in the Brackets above.
