    From looking at your progress I think you can possibly give me some insight.  The "documentation" leaves a lot to be desired.  I tried to contact Zenith and did not get a response.  

    I am installing the elevator actuator and I am finding some issues that concern me.  I'll see if I can include pictures.  I installed according to the drawings and I have full deflection in the trim tab.  Doesn't look right, especially after seeing yours.  Let me know what you think.

    The drawing shows 122MM center to center on the clevis.  I cut the rod to accommodate.

    Thank you Keith.  Exactly what I was looking for!  I don't know why I was not finding this in my search.  I am still learning how to navigate this site.

    Now to order a new rod.
