Drew.. it's a later kit. Has the top deck t rails spliced from when they
started throwing 5 x 14' 1500 float top deck rails into the last few kits
that went out the door before the recession.

If yours are wrong.. you'd have noticed... as the 22 fork ends use a 3/16
clevis pin.. not the 1/4" that the -32's do (and that came in the kit).
Worth checking though !

Before you get to the point that you are ready to mount your floats.....
please check your kits. Murphy shipped -22S forks and eyes with the -32
barrels and marked the bag AN130-32S turnbuckles for the kit I'm
installing
here. -22's only have 2200 lb rating.. -32's have a 3200 and also the eye
ends aren't big enough for 5/32 thimbles! Better to find you have the
right
or wrong ones now and can make arrangements before you have the airplane
hanging and can't finish the job. Luckily I have 6 sets of the proper sixe
on hand in my "just in case" stock !! ;O)

Hi Wayne What # float kit are you working on. I seem to remember the
thimbles being very tight in my turnbuckle eyes.
