[quote=DamonLinkous]Do you already have your wings? Do you realize there are two types, the original Magnum wings and the later SX wings?
The original Magnum wings were installed without the anchor plates, but I ended up adding them to my 1981 Magnum because the slugs were pulling out of the beams. The anchor plates were introduced later, maybe at the same time as the SX wings, not sure, but they really make the wings more secure.
The SX wings also have a rear strut that connects from the rear wings support to the deck lip behind the beam.
Yes, you have to add a tab at the end of the beams to connect the wing struts, this requires removing the outer beam bolts.
Here are the hobie wing assembly instructions, it has details that show the anchor plates and tabs.
