Thanks for the TSB. It was informative. However, it appears that this is just for the one side? Thanks.

The description states 6 rivets so I am guessing it will be both sides but its the same repair on each side.

Finally had some time to take a peek at the repair work. Pic below. Both sides are done the same way.

IIRC you have to have 50 posts before you can send PMs. It’s in the FAQ somewhere.

Great post! I'm interested to know how much stronger those aluminium rivets really make it!
I guess its a precaution and I presume the idea is that point remains fixed and the metal piece crumples rather than spearing into the bulkhead/fuel tank

Like someone said below I don't think you can send pms until you have a certain amount of posts.
