After seeing the amount of stress that the Garmin racks would place on the panel, I started thinking about how I can add some bracing to the back. I spent a few minutes today checking to see if that support could be as easy as a piece of aluminum angle across the two diagonal tubes, but it looks like I’ll need to come up with something else. The height isn’t quite right for anything straight across.
Meanwhile I installed the starter and started tinkering with the engine baffles.
