Cherokee shoulder seat belt replacement

Kinda makes one wonder how the factory gets the screws in the first
time... G

Ain't that the truth!

I have two possible answers. The assembly was built up in a way that it can
not be taken apart in reverse order, or there was some damn special tool
involved. Perhaps a screwdriver tip made real close onto a universal joint.

In my way of thinking, if it requires a special tool, 99% of the time it was
poor engineering that makes the special tool necessary.

Can you take a photo of the device and post it to
alt.binaries.pictures.aviation -- or somewhere else, or email it to me?

Upload to sendspace.com; then post the URL....

I can't see how 3 tiny screws secure it....

That should be asked of Texas Slacker, I believe.

Neither in this case..

Simple, good engineering..

The head is on the OUTSIDE OF THE FUSELAGE , on the roof.

You need someone on the outside , standing on the wing walk,holding
the headwhile you twist off the AN nut on the inside.

Not everyone quickly makes the connection between the bold head on
the roof with the seat belt assy on the inside..

One of the many features that make Mr. Piper's airplanes so easy to
work on..
