I am starring at the 599 and I am trying to figure out what AN bolt,nut,washer to get for mounting the wing to the fuselage. I see only the the specs for the AVDEL BALL-LOK PIN, but no specs for which bolt to use. I see an 5-4A on the drawings, but that is way to short to put through the wing/fuselage... besides that, I cannot find any other reference to a bolt. Am I crazy or is it not shown? Can anyone let me know which bolt to use? |

dcuke, Why don't you just add up the thicknesses of the materials that make up the spar , add the thickness for a couple of washers and look it up on the AN/MS bolt chart? Jim Mantyla |

Dean, have a look here http://thorp18.com/forum/topic.asp?ARCH ... IC_ID=5695 If it's the main bolts I think it's an AN6-25 |

an6-22a is the correct bolt. 6-25a is just a little too long |

It you were interested in the Ball-loc pins they are still available from Avibank. The Australian distributor quoted me $42.39AUD each on the basis of a minimum order of 11. Thats for the BL S 6 TA 17 S that is called for in the plans. That is one expensive bolt and also requires a 6-9 week lead time on manufacture. |
