Well, haven’t sat in it yet, I think I will like the 2” lower and 2” back since I am 6’4”…I do like the quality, Javron puts out some nice parts! In 2022 money I got around $1700 in it. With Bidenomics in full effect, might now be $3400…

Got a present from Javron today…L21 window kit.

@Steve Pierce can you expand on what you mean by lined up correctly? Are you talking about vertically at tail post so hinges mate correctly to the rudder, or on a for/aft fuselage centerline, or both? When it comes to hinges aligning with the rudder, we are good there. As for the for/aft...

Same here... So my question to whoever may know better than me when it comes to tube strength/integrity on a part such as this, what do I do with it? Leave it be or correct it (lower existing bolt is partially inline with the correct fore/aft hole location). What seems like the cleanest method...

Well, I need some advice from you all...I guess the original builder thought if 1 bolt is good, 2 bolts must be better. Should a guy consider removing the vertical fin and welding these bolt holes back closed and reinstalling just 1 bolt in the correct orientation? Don't really know if this...

Thanks for the tip Glenn! Do you love what you have now? Anything specific about them that I should know?

We made little progress in 2023, basically new paint from boot cowl forward.... In April of 2024, well, the project promptly got put into reverse gear, we are going backwards now... Upon looking the plane over closely, It appeared I was missing a lateral 5/8" structural diagonal tube that...

Plan with the bird is to make a lighter weight somewhat minimalist basic VFR fun flyer, it will have some of the desired mods, mostly baggage and beefed up fuselage mods, tail handles and maybe some 26-29 ABW's, or as a purist friend of mine likes to call them "clown shoes". Once I got it home...

My goal is to use this thread to detail the process of revamping my Experimental PA18-95. I look forward to all the valuable input I can gain from this well seasoned group. Hopefully someone can find my thread helpful too in the future! I have learned so much already from lurking in the...

Mission accomplished, wing removal part anyhow, still gotta get it moved to the home garage. I didn't get around to doing this until just this last month. Thanks everyone for the ideas and help with this! I spent an afternoon by myself prepping for de-winging, draining fuel, wire management...

Denny, Thanks for all the great advice! Didn't think about taper punches/screwdrivers etc. replacing bolts, but it makes perfect sense. As for the jury struts, should I mark their clamp location on the strut (assuming there will be witness marks left anyhow)? Guessing that will automatically...

I need to get my experimental PA-18-95 (O-200) closer to home to help promote progress on the project. I am considering removing the wings to allow it to fit in my garage. I am highly mechanically inclined and know my way around a toolbox and can wrench with the best of them. I however am not...
