So far anyhow.=20 I also thank the gentlemen who I talked to on the phone at Jeff's house. To= o noisy to catch his name. His suggestion if cross referencing the size to k= its was also genius. I looked up the kit and told the Car Quest counter dude= what to order. =20 My mistake was using a #10-24 tap but ordering #10-24&10-32s coils. So going= to the local ace hardware and getting stainless 10-24s screws fixed it. Tha= t will be the only place on the plane with 24 pitch threads. But saved me $1= 600 on a new fork.=20 Anyhow, thank you all. So far so good on the fairing.=20 George Any Sent from my iPhone=
