    Default Mod. IV horizontal tail V support

    I just received my new tail struts from the good folks at Kitfox. Mine is a '94 vintage with a welded V strut. The new ones are two piece with welded tabs at one end and threaded rod at the other for rodends. What a nice upgrade! the tubes go from pencil sized to finger sized! All the hardware is included. I hope Fathers day is a day in the barn with my Kitfox!

    So much larger than the old welded V style. I’m taking them to work tomorrow to wire wheel the welded ends and paint them.
