 |
|
Today I discovered that I need four AN316-5R nuts that are not included in the kit inventory.
Aaargghhh.
Fine. I'll buy them and keep moving forward...
In order to save $$$ on "shipping & handling", I'd like to buy as much of the extra stuff as possible all at the same time.
What do you know of that is needed to complete the 601XL airframe that is NOT included in the kit...?
To start,
1) Four AN316-5R "jam nuts" as seen on 6-W-10 (yeah, I know that local hardware store nuts should be just fine for this specific application, but that's beside the point).
2) What else is missing that is needed to complete the airframe...?

Patrick, I have found that is is always good to have a few spare AN bolts, uts, and washers kicking around. You might want to consider ordering a parts kit from someone like Spruce. They sell a starter bolt and nut kit for 40-50 dollar I think that has several different sizes in it.
This will help but I gauratee you will still be short the one size "You REALLY need" to complete some future component.

Pat-
Did you buy a kit, or are you scratchbuilding? If you bought a kit,
contact Zenith and they'll supply what's missing

I'm building from component kits. Feel like I'm on the "home stretch" now with the Fuselage kit sitting in my garage... 
Zentith has been 100% accurate so far in packing what they say the pack, as there is a shipping list that is included with the individual parts checked off, which I double check.
But in this case I don't think they intended to include the particular nuts, since they don't appear on the pick list. They're just simple "jam nuts", so I think I'll "home depot" them and press on.
Thanks,
Patrick

The hardware kit that shipped with my kit included 7 jam nuts in total- I suspect you should have received them as Zenith is pretty good about sending everything you need for work called for in the drawings.
