The International Cessna 170 Association

Going to ask a simple question of this group....who has had experience in swaging the pushrod tubes on the 0-300 engine and what level of success had you achieved at doing it, plus I have heard coupling that process with the addition of certain wicking loctite products gives a much better result.......

These are what Mountain Airframe installed on my doors. I'm not sure what they are, but they are very tight in the hole. IMG_2139.JPG Miles, those pins remind me of the "safety pins" used on hand held fire extinguishers.....but at least what you have is another option to consider, Thanks ...

The correct pin called out in the '48 and A model IPC but the same in all models is NAS41-2-1.625 or a NAS41-2 pin 1-5/8". In the B model IPC the Cessna part is 0711001-59. No matter the model, all the pins are the same and if you follow Yingling's listing for 0711001-59 you will see that the ...

To avoid ANY hassles down the road, I opted to install the Whelen LED drop in bulbs, they are approved for certified aircraft, sure they are expensive, but 10,000 hr expectancy and a 5 year warranty, but I do know of folks that opted for the $59 specials as well, if you IA is a reasonable chap, then...

I have seen welding rod or retainers from the tractor parts store commonly referred to as hair pins. The beauty of hairpins is the ability to safety wire them so they can't come out.

This goes out to the gentleman, a fellow Cessna 170 owner (sorry can't remember the name) that I spoke with at the Lakeland QB hangar, at Sun-N-fun, yesterday April 6th, about the vendor who did my custom silkscreen T-shirts of my airplane (C-170), contact me via this medium to get the vendor contac...

Okay fellow C170 owner/operators, got a problem that I am trying to solve for a fellow C170B owner, that has a Skytech starter installed, I do not know time in service since install right now, but this is an ongoing issue that I'm seeking some outside insight to fixing.....once and for all....I'm no...

When I redid mine last spring even though it was stainless, it was old as crap and I had to cut half of it off with a die grinder, but some of it was mixed regular AN hardware along witt stainless......your right it does last much longer
