Default Wing spar bolts
Are these the bolts for the wing spar (RV-6)?

http://vansaircraft.com/cgi-bin/store.cgi?ident=1465581167-62-18&browse=hardware&product=ctbolt

Anyone know the exact part#? I knackered most of mine getting the wing off.

Thanks!

I had an RV-6A disassembled for shipping overseas. I called Vans, and ordered a complete set of all new bolts needed to put the wings back on. Easy.

Haven't reassembled the plane yet................

The plans call out the main large bolts as NAS close tolerance -

16 pcs NAS1306-30

4 pcs NAS1304-30

I bet Vans has the best price around...

All of the other bolts are AN3 or AN4 of the appropriate length.

Default spar bolt washer placement.
Hi All,

Quick question regarding spar/wing attachment bolts.

Which of these bolts require washers and where? Head or nut or both ends?

Regards

David .
