Outer wing Rib replacement
Hello, I just picked up a 1946 140 that needed to have the wings recovered. When stripping down the right wing I came across a mouse nest in the very tip of the wing. After further inspection I determined that the 2nd rib from the tip (witch is different than the center section ribs and the wing tip rib) needed to be replaced because of corrosion issues. After referencing the parts catalog I figured out it is part #0422326-1 "Rib assembly - compression - (station 176)." I looked through Univair and from what I could tell they only had center section and wing tip ribs. Does anyone know where I can locate this rib? I also need the trailing edge portion of that same rib but I cannot locate that part in my book. Thanks in advance for any information!
