Crash, Jr.

Hate to say it but if it's been a whole year that this guy has taken your money and not sent the parts, you've probably been ripped off.

That's been my experience too. My little solid tire maule tw worked just fine but it sure had a rough ride. The 3200 is much nicer in that respect....

J3 and Taylorcraft guys tend to like them. You might put them on ebay or on the J3 cub forum for sale.

Simple. Because the atomization of the fuel in the venturi cools the carburetor throat and induces icing in carburetors. A drop in air pressure does...

Fair point. Just seems like the consensus is that 4 cylinder Continentals make more carb ice than 4 cylinder Lycomings. Perhaps this is not the case?...

Just a small point of correction. Lycomings still have the carburator before the sump so the air passing through the carburator isn't heated...

When you increase the total number of dollars in circulation by almost 40% in the span of 18 months it tends to put a lot more cash in consumer's...

I'm with stewart, a 172 or 182 fits the bill. Heck, for perhaps even less money a Cherokee fits the bill and you wouldn't get made fun of for flying...

Have you called Whirlwind to see what engine models they recommend for that prop?

Just out of curiosity who is doing Marvel carb rebuilds these days?

My dad told me a story about my grandfather flying in Alaska in a J3 back in the 60's. Said he was crossing over a lake when the engine started to...

My numbers could very well be off if you're comparing to a competition type situation. I was judging the take-off while circling above the strip and...

The 76AK-2-XX prop really is the ticket though. It can turn an okay performing plane into a great one. I'm saving pennies and searching for one...

This model of wheel/brake is for 1.25" axles but they're missing the bearings, races, and grease seals. Should be a good deal for someone who's handy...

Can't argue with you on the prop front. Short of field approving one, the C85 is the easiest way to get the 76AK-2 on there and yes, the prop makes...

I would disagree with that fairly strongly. The C90 makes MUCH more torque than the C85 in addition to more horspeower. JimC has the torque and HP...

The TCDS refers to items 311(c)9 for the C85 only which is the M76AK-2 prop which is the most highly regarded prop but for the C90-8 you're limited...

I try and think of a time when my upper back or head was ever touching the headrests in my truck or car "high back" style seats and it's virtually...

I've never NOT had some oil in my airbox, kind of part of having a slimy little lawnmower engine powering your plane. Compressions are low but not...

Seems like mainly hard surface. The slick tread baby bushwheel wants to skate around from what I've heard. Of course in snow I'd imagine the ski...

Interesting that Burl is selling bunches of the Baby Bushwheel ski. All the feedback I've gotten from customers leads me to believe that the tail ski...

Well at least that darn legacy gear wasn't at fault this time

These are the automotive or weatherhead style compression nuts and sleeves that Steve mentioned. They might work for that reverse flare type you have...

It's a good point but at least the Wag bracket looks pretty minimalist. The Atlee one is a massive bracket for such a simple installation. Now I'm...

Yes please. I need to do a rear seat harness and looking for ideas as to minimize fabric work.

Let me know if he backs out. I've been looking for one of these props.

Oh absolutely 100% cylinder priming is the best way to go if possible but there are about 20k J3's out there, probably close to that number of BC12's...
