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

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.

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.

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?
