[rebel-builders] FUS 25 & 26
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 8:34 pm
I had to replace the skin under the door with .032 and the doorsill with
about .040 after I made wrinkles in both sides during 2 different hard
landing events while on wheels. I also replaced the glareshield with .032
because it wrinkled at the corners of the panel. I also added doublers at
the panel corners after the fact but I believe if you did it while building
that is all that would be needed.

rivets to drill out on each side to replace fus 26 as well as the lower
angle I do not want to replace them if it is not necessary but will if it
is. What is the best thickness to use? My goal is to keep moving forward
but seem to keep having to undo the original to beef it up.
