Midbody & AFT Fuselage Assembly
.
Make sure the bell mouth is secure and
tight to the pipe. If you plan to use the
PRCJ 36” Smoke Stick,
pre-install now at
the top center of the pipe and
slide pipe
into AFT Fuselage
. Pull your wires through
at the top access area, line up the
AFT/Midbody sections, apply Blue Medium
Thread Locker and install top bolt with the
provided wrench, (Lightly Tighten Bolt)
then loose install the remaining 5 bolts
with Medium Thread Locker. During
tightening, ensure proper alignment of the
AFT and Midbody sections before fully
tightening down the bolts
Securing Pipe and Smoke Tube.
Install the pipe mounting “L” tabs at the
center line of the pipe and secure with
provided hardware, see Photo for
reference. Using your turbine for mock-up,
set the distance and pipe alignment. The
end of the pipe should be flush with the
rear section of the jet as shown in photo.
Once alignment is achieved secure pipe
with provided screws as shown in photo.
Bring smoke tube end out of the rear of the
pipe about 1.5 inches and bend down to
get into the hot exhaust stream. Adjust
rotation of smoke tube and then bend at
the bellmouth area as needed. We used Zip
Ties and mounts to secure smoke tubing.
Wire tie and run smoke tubing forward to
tray.
