Reference Non-Routine Work Card (NRWC) C13XXX.  Both the left and right Elevator Gear Tab outboard crank fitting to pushrod bolt heads installed [facing] inboard. I Removed and Reinstalled (R/R) both the left and right outboard gear tab bolts with the heads facing outboard. I generated this NRWC because of the problem that I had with Aircraft Y; Reference NRWC C12XXX; and I was still under the impression that the bolt head should be installed facing outboard which I was incorrect. Improper installation. Hangar: Routine Overnight Maintenance (RON).
Reference Non-Routine Work Card (NRWC) C12XXX. Both the left and right Elevator Gear Tab crank fittings to pushrod outboard bolt heads installed [facing] inboard. I generated this NRWC because on the right hand outboard gear tab to crank fitting to pushrod cotter pin was rubbing against the outboard fairing of the aircraft. To correct the problem I turned the bolt around so that the bolt head was outboard on both gear tabs which I now believe to be incorrect. [Need to] pay attention to detail. Hangar: Routine Overnight Check (RON).
An Aircraft Maintenance Technician (AMT) removed and re-positioned the attach bolt on the left and right elevators at the Elevator Gear Tab outboard crank fitting to pushrod connection on a B717 aircraft; to correct for the bolt end cotter pin rubbing against the aircraft fairing.
