Investigating why the stabilator would not hit its up stop when the yoke was pulled back. The phenolic bushing around the pilots yoke or shaft is the secondary stop which hits the instrument panel when the yoke is pulled aft. The bushing was installed on the shaft but does not fit around the plastic grommet for the push to talk wires in the center of the shaft. This prevented the yoke from moving far enough to give full up stabilator!

The notch in the bushing needs to fit over the grommet and the bushing be secured at the forward end of the shaft to keep this from happening again.
