I've never done a Kitfox, but the Avid is almost the same.  Here are some pics of rib tails I built to Avids.  With the repair parts in the pictures, you remove everything of the rib behind the spar, and part of the cap strip ahead of the spar.  Glue in the new part, and that fixes it.  Another method I used on my Avid MK IV is shown in this bunch of posts.  Maybe this will answer some of your questions, or produce more of them..... :-)  JImChuk

PS  it seems I've answered this same question earlier in the week.  Did your read my reply?
