[quote=turbohobo]Shortening the lock-down bolt by screwing it in will increase the lock-down force on the locking pin located inside the rudder casting, if the locking bolt is 1/4 longer as you describe, it may impede/prevent you from acquiring the lock-down force needed. In that case, you will have to cut the bolt shorter, but screw the lock-nut on 1st, cut the bolt, then screw nut off. I am refurbishing a P16 right now and when I get to the rudders will take pics of rudder adjustment, but they are exactly the same as the P18 I had and I got those dialed in replacing only the sheaves for the rudder lines as they were deteriorated.[/quote]
