Gap Seals

The elevator gap seals on my Maule have started to crack. How do I get the old ones off, and how do I install the new ones (under an A&P's supervision, of course)? Thanks. - Mike

you can buy the kit from maule for ~$50. it comes with an installation drawing. it's very easy.

as for removal of the old ones ??? maybe a heat gun? i would expect it to peel most of the paint up with it though. so you may need to respray the tail feathers.
