Trying to find info on the sheetmetal assy that gets riveted in between rudder skins to form tail light housing. Is it on page 28,Fig 15,part 29, #0433121. In units per assy it lists 1. Should this be 2. Dont they go back to back to form the housing. Preferred Air Parts has some NOS but the parts guy dosnt seem to sure if it is the right part,and he has no way to send a picture. Also listed in the parts book is on fig 15,part 24,#0433006.Listed as Light-Tail. I am thinking that might be a assy.
Any thoughts?

Re: Tail Light
The "support assembly", PN 0433121 is only installed ONCE in a 170 rudder, therefore the qty per rudder-assy is ONE. (Makes no difference the support itself may be made up of two halves.)

Re: Tail Light
The straight 170, 170A and 140 manuals all show the same part number (0433121) and show 2 per assy. Could be the B manual has a misprint?

Re: Tail Light
I tend to agree with Walt. It makes sense it should read 2 units per assy. Before I order them from Preferred if any one has the 2 pcs in good shape they want to sell let me know.
Thanks for the input.

Re: Tail Light
Sometimes, when these parts were orginally spot welded, and some were, they listed it as a single part. The A model shows the main rudder skins, left and right, as an assembly because they were spot welded. The B list an assembly# and individual #'s for the skins. I'm not sure when they went from a spot welded assy to a riveted assy.
When ordering that 0433121 new surplus, you may get a spot welded assy, or one half. It would help if the vendor could pull the part(s) and describe them to you.
