Ragwing flap return spring

Post by 2Georges »

Hello all,
Does anyone have a part number for the flap return spring for the '48 C-170. The part is not listed in my copy of the IPC (apparently others have found the same problem through my search on this forum). I made the mistake of ordering two new springs that fit the C-170A model (about the same length but not nearly as sustantial). I thought maybe the part number would be the same as the C140? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

I was advised a few years ago that the flap return springs are p/n 0523207. I have not verified the number.
