Hi Gert
I have fitted Bob Harrison's Torque tube clamp, It effectivley clamps the
whole Torque tube and TP9/TP5 together as one!
Basically a fit and forget Modification,

OK, I have now done the Europa modification No 62!
Amen.
Easy to write, but believe me - a hard job.
I did the fix according to the factory recommendations, but actually I feel
that it's just a matter of time before the problem occurs again.
Think a better fix would have been to put AN5 bolts instead of the pins and
to mill a aluminum plug which could slide inside the TP4 torque tube and
give you the possibility to tighten the arrangement together.
I am interested in comments from folks who have done this mod. the Europa
way to hear from their experience.
Regards Gert
