Hi Brian,

Are you talking about the control yoke universal joints and bushings that are in the panel?

If so, I got the teflon bushings from Wag-Aero. They came with the STC documentation.

Try this link for info on the universal joints: http://www.cessna170.org/phpBB2/viewtop ... ght=ujoint

If it doesn't work, put "u-joint" in the search feature and it will come up.

Yep, that was me! I do remember meeting you. Stop in down in Columbus sometime. There is great BBQ on the field at KTZR.
