Hi Alan, sorry for the late reply. I don't visit this BB often. Wentworth had C gear that I scavenged the parts that I needed from. After cleaning, inspecting and painting, they look and fit up perfectly. Tom

If not already done, suggest you reach out to Wentworth in MN.

Yes please and thanks!

David, have you located the parts required to comply with M20-161? The Lord discs are easy...Spruce. It's the rest...

Never mind David. I read your thread. My project is similar 30 months in and have not made it public.

Which model do you have David? Mine is an A. Tom Kodiakflyer@gmail.com

Does anyone have a source for the 3CRE-714 shock disc?

Thanks very much, Gents.

I have a nose heavy M20A with a M20C tail. Does anyone have a battery relocation 337 to share?

Hi Josh!

Doing exactly the same as you. I have figured out all but the mixture and cowl flaps.

Suggest having a mechanic perform a grease plate check where the unloaded plane is rolled onto three sets of (2 each) approximately 1 foot square thin metal, usually tin, plates which have a thin layer of Shell 7 (or equivalent) between them (like an Oreo cookie). This allows the mechanic to observe alignment and rigging tendencies. It's a great troubleshooting approach and could prevent unnecessary part changes.

Thanks, I will use a small bead on my glareshield.

Looks excellent. Did you use a bead around the pilot facing edge? If so, what material did you use.

Any idea of how old the voltage regulator is?

Enjoy the entire experience. Remember, we are custodians...

Installing a TailBeacon on my M20A. Using a Garmin 327 xpdr. Had the same arrangement on my PA20 Pacer. Worked flawlessly.

Valuable FOD find.

Hi Joe, Let's hook up. ThomasCWillis@ProtonMail.com Tom

31 December 2021 I purchased and ferried an M20A half way across the USA to Montana. The performance of my new (to me) M20A, wood wing with metal tail, is astonishing having owned and flown a Beech P35 Bonanza for 11 years and 850 hours. The ride is extraordinary with a slightly dampened shock absorbsion thanks to the flex of the wing. The handling qualities are certainly not as light and crisp as the Beech, however, it climbs almost as well, and climbs higher that the IO-470N and is nearly as fast. I saw 155 mph TAS average cruise and with full fuel, 159 mph TAS early in cruise Solo with a full auxiliary tank. The bird will undergo a makeover and will make its appearance at Oshkosh 2022.
