Default RE: Edge elevator location (revisited)

Thanks, Pat. The rudder cables were the main issue I was worried about as the exit openings look like they are a little closer to the bottom cutouts as they are to the top ones. Mine IS and OLDER version with the two sets of cutouts UNDERNEATH the stab and directly above and below each other. I called Tom and he said that mounting them in the lower location would screw with the geometry more, and that is why I was hesitating to do it, but all the measurements that I made, it looked like the logical (perfect fit) I did not want to waste Tom's time on the phone, hence why I posted here, but I would like to know why he said what he did as he should know this plane as well as anyone!!!!! Thanks again all who responded and if anyone else has additional info, feel free to post away!!!!

Regards,
