My mixture cable broke today, looking for the part number, I think mine was the wrong cable or not setup correctly, because was very hard to make the engine quit when I pulled the mixture, and always Had to pull really hard for the engine to quit. I have the Avcon conversion with the Lycommin O360. ...

Mine has a crack in it I rather do not repair.
Any ideas on where to find one?

I replaced the leaf spring on my 170B, with the Univair kit. Before removing the old springs, we noticed one chain was tense and the other more slack, and both had the same amount of links 17. The old leafs were so worn out , now with the new ones the chains are super tight. I think at least an extr...

Not sure if the best, that depends on the mission, but very likely its the most fun to fly.

I am installing the Cessna part, which I think if it changed in-flight handling, it would have never been FAA certified.
Probably because of this certification is why I have to pay $350 for two pieces of rubber.

For the guys who installed the abrasion boots, what is the trick to make it look smooth on the round portion of the horizontal stab?

Cessna 170B 1953.
I see small holes in the leading edge of the horizontal stab, I think there is 4 of them.
What are those small holes made for?
If installing an abrasion boot , they will all be covered.

You can get the generic flat material several places. The only source I'm aware of for the extruded boots is Textron. Of course there may be vendor NOS sources as well. Just bought a pair for a 180K, $171 each. S1938-3-68.00 picture.jpg S1938-3-68.00.jpg Question, do they come in this shape or you ...

I forgot to mention in the video is that the Cessna 170 the pilot needs to lead every turn with rudder, because of adverse yaw, which does not happen in the 182 and specially CJ6 Nanchang I fly.

Can you send me a link for the Atlee Dodge extended baggage?
I cannot find it.

I am in the same boat, e mailed the install instructions of the Airglas extended baggage to my mechanic to see if it could be modify and make it a minor alteration.
The Airglas floor has a doubler, I assume to be able to withstand weight, that is the key part.
I post here whatever he says.

Thanks doesnt look like there is one.

Airglas is the only one that might work with a minor alteration.

Is there an STC for an extended baggage compartment with the battery mounted on the back?

Doug, everything was replaced, was fully restored.
