Step 1: Place one of the F-1011C Horizontal Stabilizer Attachment Bars in a padded vice (padded with wood, aluminum, plastic,) near one of the ends. Pre load the free end of the attachment bar in the direction required to straighten it and, using a rubber mallet, firmly strike the bar one time near the vice. Repeat this sequence until the bar is straight within a 1/16" along it's entire length.

Note: Deburr and clear away chips at all appropriate stages

 

Step 2: Finish the edges of the two F-1011C Horizontal Stabilizer Bars, then cleco them to the front of the F-1011 Bulkhead as shown in Figure 2. Except for the bottom hole in each attachment bar (the hole shared with the F-1011A Bulkhead Stiffener), final-drill the holes common to the attachment bar and bulked using a # 30 drill.

Step 3: Place the F-1011A Bulkhead Stiffener on the back of the F-1011 Bulkhead as shown in Figure 2. Center the stiffener between the sides of the bulkhead with the top of the stiffener flange 1/4" above the holes in the bulkhead as depicted in Figure 3.

Clamp the stiffener in place, then match-drill the holes of the bulkhead (and the bottom hole in the F-1011C Attachment Bars) into the stiffener with a # 30 drill. Install clecos as you go.
