no not yet I took the wing off yesterday using the strap wrench and got a 14mm allen wrench socket from the neighbor. I need to pick up the blue locktite today and hopefully it shows up soon! You missed a good time after the start of the fireball rally. We had a spirited run with a Noble, F360, 3 -996TT and a 930 from the arena to the Winter Park village. Darn a 360 and a Noble running together and punching it sure sounds good

I put it on this weekend. The rubber strap tool worked fine taking the old one off but didnt have enough grip to tighten the thing back on tight even holding a pin in the hole. I ordered the proper tool today. It is surprisingly good looking CF for the price and arrived in perfect condition. I will post some pictures tonight. I am leaving it CF untill it yellows or whatever it may do then probably will paint it black.

Sweet!! Thank you. That is in the extended position correct? the system continues to work by raising the wing? or is it fixed now?

Can you pm me the cost ? or put it here for everyone to know...

You are not helping my current financial deficit situation Jim... not helping at all... lol

this is what I got for those that want to know. I looked and the guy doesnt have anything on ebay right now and a couple of bad marks after I got mine. You may want to email him and see if he answers. He did not answer any of my email after the sale and it took about 8 days to get it.
Proceed with caution if interested. It was well packed and came without a scratch on it.
