the holes in the levers should be just large enough to allow the shims to slide freely through.. ..Herb

Yes herb I know what they are I was just trying to locate a piece of tubing that size 7/16 x 028 as I said I don't have any and I call aircraft spruce and they don't have any 7/16 with a wall that thin 035 was the thinnest wall they sell so instead of buying a lot more than I need somewhere else I thought perhaps someone on the list might have a piece they could send me ? Get my drift? Thanks for the comeback if no one else responds I guess I will look elsewhere or maybe even ask Bryon at KOLB for a piece . Chris

 Looking at the plans..it would be hard to tell if it is a piece of tubing or just a flat washer..    I think Kolb went to all .035 in the Firefly fuselage to standardize it to all the other models. I will check my stock...and let you know...If not..betting Bryan can send you a couple of pre cut shims...for shipping cost ...Herb

Herb, I guess that I will try Bryan. According to my plans it is a piece of tubing and I have tried to find a washer that only has an outside diameter of 7/16 and would have an inside diameter of 3/8 to no avail so I guess I will try KOLB.
Thanks for your input . Chris

Thanks for your input . Chris

Looking at the plans..it would be hard to tell if it is a piece of tubing or just a flat washer.. I think Kolb went to all .035 in the Firefly fuselage to standardize it to all the other models. I will check my stock...and let you know...If not..betting Bryan can send you a couple of pre cut shims...for shipping cost ...Herb

| Quote: | Yes herb I know what they are I was just trying to locate a piece of tubing that size 7/16 x 028 as I said I don't have any and I call aircraft spruce and they don't have any 7/16 with a wall that thin 035 was the thinnest wall they sell so instead of buying a lot more than I need somewhere else I thought perhaps someone on the list might have a piece they could send me ? Get my drift? Thanks for the comeback if no one else responds I guess I will look elsewhere or maybe even ask Bryon at KOLB for a piece . Chris

Those are short pieces of tubing that fit over the h section through bolt..Just a bit longer than the actuation levers are wide...Herb
