In prep for upcoming BBSS Install, "broke" bolts (which is slang for loosened them) on:
BSC1's +Y Door Bolts (mostly) Removed & Accelerometer Cable Disconnected
BSC1's door had all bolts but (4) removed. Sadly, I removed the bottom (easy ones) bolts first and then when I got to the top bolts they were very hard to loosen because of some sag. Additionally, their access is horrible with: a stiffening plate for the chamber right above the rear access to these bolts, then there are cable trays also in the way, and the C3 fabric cover is draped in your face the whole time. Jordan helped out and we were able to get the last top bolt removed. We also loosened the (4) bolts 1-turn which is the typical procedure.
There was an accelerometer still cabled up to this door. I disconnected the cable (labeled "PEM:BSC1_ACC_X") and stuffed the cable into the cable tray above this door.
Time lapse of me removing half the bolts in this LINK (since we only files allowed in alog have to be smaller than 15Mb.) :(
BSC2's Dome Bolts (mostly) Removed, But Have A Galled Bolt!
BSC2's dome bolts were removed. 4-bolts were left in place (they were loosened and then tightened up a little). One notable, is there is 1-galled dome bolt. Jordan and I used the long wrenches to see if we could use more force to help it break loose, but no luck. We did not try pouring some alcohol on the bolt to help as a lubricant. The bolt is loose and has about 1-2mm of a gap on it. So, the pros could try use even longer cheater bars, a saw cutter, or they were also chatting about a tool to cut the nut off. At any rate,
