I installed Mod 70 last Thursday, but left the cables attached to the TP10s
just in case they might still be needed (I have turnbuckles). The installation
was a fairly easy job as I don't have the top on yet. However, I have the same
problem as you in that the mass balance weights contact the port guide strip.
Very little pressure is needed to get the weights centred, so I certainly
have no intention of removing, bending and replacing the installation on a trial
and error basis.
I had a very brief word with Andy Draper about this on Friday (he was with a
customer, so there was no time to go into details). Andy said I was not the
only one with this problem and that he was going to discuss it with Francis
Donaldson. He asked me to call back sometime next week.
