Bryan,
I had to do something very similar in my 360.  I did not build the
wings.  When one of the wing probes quit working, I found out that the
capacitance fuel probes were BONDED in the ribs.  A plastic guide tube
was NOT used.

It is really not that formidable of a project and can be done by a
couple of people in a few days.  However, you really need to have
someone who knows what they are doing.  We ripped the old probes out,
cut four(?) access holes in the bottom of each wing large enough to
get your hand through.   We then bonded in a plastic guide tubes for
the probes and then patched the access holes up using a method similar
to that described by Brent Reagan a few months ago.

The repair is not visible, and has work flawlessly for 5+ years and 500+ hours.

Regards,
Clark Baker
