Message	Not that i'm saying it doesn't work.. But there have already been two Z's I worked on.. where it damaged the pilot bushing.. Granted, if you were really careful and went in very small increments, it may not damage anything.. But you should never have to "force" it.. Its hard to realize how much pressure is being put on the pilot bushing from the snout when using the bolts to "pull" it into place. _________________________________________________________________________ ~~~ Sig starts below ~~~ ================================================================= NO, This picture is not photoshopped.
