Glad to hear things are progressing.

Grease: TRC 880 Red NLGI #2 Race: Timken LM29710 Bearing: Timken LM29749 Axle Grease Seal: National 472439

I have the Clamar 2500A. You need to disconnect both arms at the keel and at the bottom of the “spring” arms. Removing and installing the cotter pins take the longest. You could try one arm but then the bearing doesn’t stay in place. If you need part #s for race, bearings and axle seal, let me...

Well done!

Thanks. I should have included this is for an O360

8442, 8440, 8640 or something close.

A WAG of 1273#

Any Michigan Supercubbers on here? I’m at 24C. Can come up for a visit this weekend if you are around.

I also couldn’t find an oil leak on an O-360. Had to replace a mechanical fuel pump including new gasket. No more leaks.

Thanks. I’ll check into that.

After a recent flight, for the first time, the engine mounted fuel pump breather line started dripping fuel. Any idea why that might be? Thanks.

Mag wires are opposite of what they should be?

I look at amphibs as giving versatility for land or water. Great when refueling on cross country trips. Not great for STOL ops. I have Clamars and don’t have much of an issue with brakes. When it comes to landings on wheels, I try to be as gentle as possible. An accumulator and springs on the...

Cool video. I was born in Cochrane Ont. Visited Moosonee once. Reminds me of that.

Thanks for the feedback. I too experienced the flutter when the cable broke previously. Not pleasant. Now the cable just flexes midsection instead of pushing the trim tab. Been going without trim for a while. Now looking to tackle the problem.

I have a Wag 2+2 that has a trim lever in the cabin with a 19 foot push/pull cable that runs to the trim tab. Doesn’t work very well/at all. Thinking about other options. Any one using a servo to run the trim? If so, how is that set up? Any other ideas? Thanks in advance.

I did not build the one I have but it’s gross is 2500. The wing is a Riblett 66” from D&E. Good performance at gross. Empty weight about 1300 with an O-360. 9-10 gallons per hour leaned. Seems to be a pretty good combination.

What the .....

I use the shorten 2x4 spreader bars for transport. 65” wide and fits most car trailers (17’ long). Chock the wheels and strap them down you hardly know they are there. You start out slow to take care of them but after pounding the pavement for a while you find yourself going 80 like Glenn...
