I have an RV-8 130.0 HRS. TT / NO CRACKS on either SB . ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
That being said , I have a question to all about installing a "WASHER " between the Spar and the Jam nut on the elevator Rod end hinges as a PREVENTIVE measure ???
. Or should we just make sure the nut is tight and keep watch as is . I understand that Van's Does Not recomend installing the reinforfement plates till there is a Crack !
So in the opinion of the members of this Forum what do you think ? Put the WASHER ON or Leave it as is till it Cracks ? Thanks to all in advance .
P.S. I EMAILED Vans' this Question last week and have Not yet received an answer .
