Hi Dennis:

 

I installed the Univair Trim Tab kit (purchased from SkyPort) in my
415-C and found that I had to remove the horizontal stabilizer to
install the rear wire housing.

 

However, I found the same problem you are having with the trim wire
binding.

 

I think what is happening is that the end of the wire is catching on the
end of the B nut.  What I did was to 'sharpen' the end of the trim wire
to a point and then was able to run it completely though without a
problem.

 

Roy

I have a 1946 415C with the larger trim tab required by the 1320# STC.

We installed a new 3/16" tubing down the fuselage and a new trim tab
wire. The trim tab wire is binding between the "B" nut at the forward
end of the horizontal stabilizer and the trim tab. We have isolated the
binding problem to this area. Can anyone tell us how to replace the wire
housing between the "B" nut and the trim tab?
I appeciate any help you can provice. Thanks, Dennis
