urbanti Posted September 14, 2015 Report Posted September 14, 2015 Does anybody know off the top of their heads the part numbers or other identifying info on brake pads for a 1965 M20E? I'm assuming that all the vintage planes would use the same pads. thanks in advance Tim Quote
urbanti Posted September 14, 2015 Author Report Posted September 14, 2015 Think I found the answer Manual shows linings as 35-204 (two) and 66-30 (two) Tim Quote
Andy95W Posted September 14, 2015 Report Posted September 14, 2015 For the '65, it should be the 35-204. It depends on how many rivets hold the pads to the plates. If you have 3 rivets, they are the 35-204, if you have 2 rivets, they are the 66-30. They changed in 1967, but some of the older planes were "upgraded". The next issue is that 35-204 is the Mooney part number. The "modern" part number for that is 66-111. Pretty sure the "modern" part number for the 66-30 is the 66-105. And you can't always go by the Aircraft Spruce catalog, particularly for the brake discs. 1 Quote
N201MKTurbo Posted September 14, 2015 Report Posted September 14, 2015 66-105 either Rapco or Cleveland. Quote
Andy95W Posted September 14, 2015 Report Posted September 14, 2015 66-105 either Rapco or Cleveland. not for an original 1965. 66-105 started for SN 670001 and on. 3 rivets = 66-111 1 Quote
jbs007 Posted September 15, 2015 Report Posted September 15, 2015 Even though you obviously know the year your plane was built, check the number of rivets anyway to be sure. I have a '66 M20E that is pre 67xxxx serial number but mine were upgraded at some point as Andy said. I went off Aircraft Spruce website and got the wrong ones first time 'round. Quote
Browncbr1 Posted September 15, 2015 Report Posted September 15, 2015 make sure you taxi around while holding the brakes to break them in or you will be in or a surprise on your first landing... Quote
urbanti Posted September 15, 2015 Author Report Posted September 15, 2015 thanks for all of the replies! Tim Quote
urbanti Posted September 15, 2015 Author Report Posted September 15, 2015 Postscript: N79835 has 3-rivet pads installed Quote
yvesg Posted September 16, 2015 Report Posted September 16, 2015 Is replacing the pads something owners are allowed to sign off? I always did replace my brakes on my cars...do you also turn the rotors? Yves Quote
