Default Flap weldment favor

Could someone make a quick measurement for me on your flap weldment where the unpowdercoated ring is located on the main bar?

I have mine striped down again, and I need to tell the powdercoater where to mask off the bar for the support block.

I need a measurement from whichever side it is on, and the width of the section that is left bare.

Thanks!!

Chad-

Do you still have the weldment in your possession? If so, put the flap weldment in the AC and bolt it to the seatback bulkhead. You'll want the center delrin support block to centered on the flange of that inboard right seat rib.

The delrin block is .75 wide (if I remember correctly)--I'd leave a whole inch taped off though to give you a tiny bit of room for side to side adjustment.

Hope this helps. Good luck.
