Frank,
Your probably pretty sick of buying new tools at this point but if you have a Harbor Freight close by these pistol grip air shears do pretty well, I have a set and they cut through the...
Yes, aluminum blocks and engine parts are so common any longer one can be sure they will have something suitable for aluminum.
Another option,
If there is a engine rebuilder in the area they almost always have engine block cleaning abilities, a big heated tank where the entire block is immersed in industrial strength block...
Your a tough one ! :)
You know, 1600vw could be right, but only half right :)
There are steering gear boxes that are hydraulically operated, fairly common in tractors.
Corrected "New Pump Motor" as opposed to "Old pump motor" LOL
No gear box, it's some type of hydraulic unit, that's my story and I'm sticking to it ! :)
Reminds me more of a hydraulic motor or pump although can't see the 2nd line, maybe hid on the back side, the way it bolts the sections up doesn't at all look familiar for a steering gear box.
That's very good news, these recent gas price reductions including auto are good for everyone.
Frank,
Those wings look absolutely great, you done a great job on this project and have stuck too it not too mention taking the time to post post all the pictures and share your work progress and...
That helped a bunch Dana, ran the figures a couple time to be sure and it came out the same.
Aaron, yes, quite simple once you know how :)
The "7.0 x 10-6" is what threw me a curve, did not...
"I think you're making a mountain out of a molehill here"
LOL, yes, I do tend to over think and consequently over complicate things.
Thanks for all the input, it has been very helpful and my...
Of course the parts are not exactly .750 but I wasn't wanting to confuse my question with 10ths :)
What I was hoping for is some properly calculated figures that show exactly the thermal expansion...
Thanks Dana,
Am trying to sort it out but still confused about the numbers.
We are talking then about only a .001 difference between them over the 145ºf temp range?
Was a copy paste on the...
Hoping some one here understands these equations, I sure don't.
Wanting to find out the ID change of an aluminum tube 1"OD X 3/4"ID X 2" length say at 20ºf/-6.6ºc compared to 165ºf./74ºc

Isn't Trade-a-Plane still around?
That used to be a very good place to look for aircraft and parts.
As annoying as it is, I don't blame them either, learned long ago never mention the word.
Some smaller lumber places frown on hand picking, perhaps it was more that then for what it was for.
Send some else in at a later date and buy a bunch then bring back what isn't used or wait till...
Beautiful, you gotta be one happy camper !
EAA has a variety of them, price is reasonable.

That was (is perhaps) a common technique for military pilots, one I know of uses it in every aircraft, even a Challenger II. Have heard it called short field or maximum performance take off.
Unfortunately, correct geometry is an unknown, manufacturer is no help, same with State side dealer, personally my thinking is they don't know and only want to sell and/or install parts so it's has...
That tube had been bent 5deg negative in an accident, it was straightened to make the swivel axis straight with no change, we then added 3deg positive castor, no change.
I know I am stuck on castor...
Marty,
That is part of the CZ AD mentioned, 4-6lb it is set at 6lb as well as max tire pressure of 16 pounds, you're close.
Thanks
Ken
