Default Blind rivet question

Hey All,

I am getting ready to pull the rivets that hold the flap spar to the ribs and the plans call for an LP4-3.

I am convinced that I don't have them and am wondering if they are called out by another name.

I have:
MSP-42 (MSP-42-BS)
BSPQ 5-4

I am leaning towards the MSP-42's, but am hesitant to snap them in fearing that they are wrong.

Anyone???

CJ

I think I used LP4-3 - similar to the ones at the rear of the HS that attach the spar to the ribs ... not at the shop, though, so I can't be sure...

CJ, there should be LP4-3's in your stuff. I think if you look at Spruce there is a difference..

Thanks guys. I just found 'em! I am working while tired and know that it is taboo, but I am on a roll!

Time to call it quits for the night though. Quitting while I am ahead.

Thanks again!

CJ
