65 E model yokes and 87 K model shafts

[Ned Gravel]

Bought new yokes for my E model.  You get the old yokes and the shafts from the new(er) ones for the cost of shipping.

I will take them if still available! Thanks. Gary Bymers

Gary:  in order to determine the shipping costs, I am going to need an address, etc.

As well, easiest method is for me to pay for the shipping once we have agreed, and you drop that amount into my Paypal acct.

This Ok?

Fantastic !! Thanks they will be a nice upgrade for my 62 C model after I rehab them.

Paypal is great

Gary:

I am sending your details off to Clarence's girls that ship stuff for him.  The parts are in his shop.

I will tell them air, not ground shipping.  Ground shipping involves customs brokerage fees crossing the border in the US (whether or not tarifs are in vogue )

The girls will tell me what Fedex will charge them and I will tell you. If you agree, we can have the box shipped the next day.

This OK?

[Gary Bymers]

Sounds good, thanks 

[Ned Gravel]

@Gary Bymers

Clarence's ladies let me know that the cost for shipping is $76.07 Canadian (about $58.00 USD).

 

If you agree, I will tell them to ship ASAP.

Ned: What is condition of both the Shafts and the yokes? I have S/N 823 M20E, that has had the AD complied with a few years ago. Coming due in another 50 hours.  Existing shafts have 2800 hrs, and show some wear on the chrome, also slop in the round socket in the panel, but that is normal.  However, The AD is for cracks in the shaft that is covered up by the yokes, held in place by a taper pin, and also a set screw. I am experiencing some slight movement between the pilot yoke and the tube so I may have a problem. To my knowledge, the yoke is aluminum ( likely cast, unlikely forged or milled) and could also have corrosion.  Soon to find out.  The pilot yoke not only has the PC button on the left horn, but also an integral clock in the center.  The yokes both have bonded enamel in good condition.  Yours>  Thanks for posting and for a reply   /s/  aeromancfi

@aeromancfi

New yokes were in great shape.  Clarence played with the shafts (my old ones) to get them to fit the newer yokes.  Could not use the new shafts.  These yokes are not held on by a taper pin, but by a screw.  

Before we installed the new yokes there was a very small amount of play between the old shafts and yokes.  Not anymore.   

I know I promised pics but it will have to wait till Monday.  I promise.

Guess I missed the thread, and the parts went to Wisconsin. Thanks for the reply.   /s/ Aeromancfi

Here are the promised pics.  Installation of these K model yokes required the very slight modification of the old shafts at the area where they meet.  Also, the tapered pin used on the old connection between the old yokes and the old shafts was replaced by a nut/bolt combo oriented perpendicular to the old tapered pin holes.  I had already felt some slight play in the old combo, but there is none now.

The old setup had replaced the PC switch with a PTT, the autopilot diseng, and the A/P alt eng/diseng buttons.  The PTT remained on the left side, but the other two were moved to the right of the pilot yoke.  A PTT was added to the right of the co-pilot yoke.

In flight, I have found that I have to be careful using the controls on the G5 or I may disengage the A/P.  I may actually move those two buttons back to the left side of the pilot yoke. 

Pics are arranged in order of modification to the panel.  

As purchased.

 

Modified to put the STEC into the panel, instead of into my knee.  And added a JPI

 

Added BK AV8OR and timer for situational awareness

 

iPad on the yoke and Trimble TNL 1000 replaced with TNL 2000 Approach (not a real IFR setup). Sirs compass replacing the vibrating Whiskey compass.  PS 8000 to replace the Sigtroics Intercom and the Narco Audio Panel. Replaced the Bendix T12C with a KR 87.  New smaller vacuum gauge and the ELT replaced with a 406 MHz model.

First the G5 and the 480, with the loss of the Narco 810, the Trimble TNL 2000 A, and the DG.  Then the new yokes.

 

 

EI tach on the right (replacing a wildly vibrating mechanical tach) followed by the Sensorcon CO detector and finally, the new yokes.

 

S'all for now.

Yep, exactly how I started out. Just upgrade the yokes to get the buttons to fit.
