Installed rudder pedals and brake lines

Attached the brake pedals and brake master cylinders to the rudder pedals.

Drilled out the mounting blocks and installed the rudder pedal assembly into the fuselage.

Installed the brake fluid reservoir. The threads in the filler neck were galled so I’m going to call Van’s and have them send me a replacement. I mounted it in place anyway so that I could run all the brake lines.

Installed the brake lines.

 

Separated and painted the rudder cable links. I’ll install these along with the fairleads where the cables exit the tunnel tomorrow and that will complete this section.
