Abstract:
A mid-turbine frame for a gas turbine engine includes a vane assembly supported within a case. The vane assembly directs airflow between a first turbine and a second turbine. A support rod extends through the vane assembly and is secured to the case by a retaining nut. The retaining nut extends through a guide attached to the vane assembly for aligning the vane assembly relative to the case portion.
