cwalter Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 I have a 79 231 with a worn trim tube. Evidently the tube is installed losely in the airframe with some wear tape on it were it passes through and rubs on a rib. The rib has a wear gard on it as well. The tape on the tube wore through and it has worn about 1/4 into the tube wall. My mechanic is unable to find a replacement and Mooney has 3 people in the factory so any order could take a long time to fill at who knows what price. The part number is 915026-009. Is anyone aware of availability of this part or an alternative replacement of this part? Thanks, Chris Quote
N9937c Posted August 5, 2011 Report Posted August 5, 2011 whick tube is this? don't have parts book home. I do have whichever one you need larry Quote
cwalter Posted August 6, 2011 Author Report Posted August 6, 2011 This appears to be the second section from front. The assembly looks to have 4 tube sections and this Part Number applies to section 2 (from front). My mechanic said it wore at about the back of the rear seats passing a former or bulkhead. I will verify with my mechanic. How is the condition of the tube? I really appreciate you responding! Chris Quote
N9937c Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 the tube is off a 1250 hr frame. should be pretty good larry Quote
cwalter Posted August 6, 2011 Author Report Posted August 6, 2011 Just confirmed it is second section. Do you want to call my cell at 404-409-8054 or email cwalter@marketsource.net to move forward? Chris Quote
