O'Hara is preparing to re-install the SARJ cover. Moghbeli is heading back to the airlock - still without Crew Lock Bag P, as far as I can tell.
Mounting package serial number: either 9056 or 5056, couldn't quite make that out.

Starting the bolts by hand - however, the cover is tending to float away. Seems to be a common theme of this spacewalk.
Moghbeli is heading to the US Lab to get tethers configured for SSRMS ops with the RFG.

Updated plan - no SSRMS ops today, since they're not going to be flying the RFG into the airlock. They'll access the wedge clamps from ESP-2.

O'Hara has SARJ cover bolts hand-started and is ready to secure them with the PGT. Moghbeli is on ESP-2.

Moghbeli is now at the airlock. Great views of the equipment inside.

Even the cover bolts are proving tricky - 2A and 2B in the middle are seated, but they need 1 more before they can untether and the other two pairs of bolts aren't wanting to seat in the bolt holes. O'Hara is repositioning herself to try for a better angle.

O'Hara got bolts 1A and 1B secured! (Also, old-school helmet cam while they let her HECA cool off.)
Edit - and 3B started! McClain comments that they're about to start engraving the trophy down on the ground.

Re-torquing that one bolt on cover 3 that O'Hara inadvertently removed earlier in the EVA. With that done, she gets to stow her PGT.

Moghbeli is removing the MLI from the SASA. (Note the bolt in the middle missing its head where it was snapped off during an earlier attempt at retrieving the RFG.)

McClain reports a good checkout on the CP8 camera, with the cable now causing no issues with the pan-and-tilt.

A view of the troublesome radiator from VKD-61 as Moghbeli works with the clamshell portion of the MLI (covering the movable head of the antenna).

US EVA-89 (PET: 4:41; EDT: 12:46pm): O'Hara has completed her work with the trundle bearing assembly; Moghbeli is working to remove insulation from the radio frequency group component on External Stowage Platform No. 2; but the unit will not be retrieved as originally planned

Also, a view of the starboard CETA cart worksite where O'Hara performed a quick get-ahead involving repositioning a handle.

McClain says they have about 45 more minutes to work on the RFG before they have to start cleanup, and at this point, whatever data they can gather is a win.

O'Hara has stowed the ORU bag from the TBA replacement back in the airlock. Moghbeli is working to pull some RTV (a rubber compound) off the RFG using needle-nose pliers, but there's not a great position for her to do so.

US EVA-89 (PET: 5:19; EDT: 1:24pm): Flight controllers say the spacewalkers have about 45 minutes left to work with the radio frequency group component; O'Hara has been told to join Moghbeli at the external stowage platform to help make preparations for the component's eventual retrieval during a future spacewalk
