Looking for a up lock and down lock block for CNC owner produced

[MooneyMitch]

Beautiful!! Thank you.  

[hammdo]

Those look awesome! Understand the wait...

Thanks for the report!

Can you also give us the bolt, nut sizes/#s - just to be safe?

Look... I added no value!

but I got the words oriented correctly...

 

The parts look great!

Great pics showing the details of the limit switch, and locking device.

And how close the flap handle is...

Best regards,

That looks great.  Thanks for verifying the fit. 

[MoonFlyer68]

They look absolutely fantastic.  Thanks for all your work on this.

Hi Don,

I’ll need to get the part numbers out of the manual but the bolts are all AN3-XX

Thanks,

David

are these not for sale anymore?  I did contribute to the cause a while back.....

Took a picture of mine today....5730 hours:

I have what I think is correct:

Down lock block:

AN 3-26A Bolt

AN 960-10 Washer

AN 363-1032 Nut

Up lock block:

AN 3-17A Bolt

AN 960-10 Washer

AN 363-1032 Nut

Aviall here I come!

at least that’s what my manual says ;o)

I’m assuming the push down lock block button unscrews so that assembly can be removed/installed. Don’t see that breakdown in my manual as I believe those early model Mooneys didn’t have them...

The SB for models without the button lock block on how to add the revised block:

FYI preloads in that SB are wrong. This SI corrects those:

Edit:

David was quick!

The button on the thumb latch just unscrews and then you can slide apart. Be careful as to not let the spring get away from you. See picture for the associated pieces.

Hi Jim,

I’m trying to think of how best to handle another small order and comply with the owner produced rules since we already have a drawing and material spec. It may be that you provide the material to comply.

I’ll check with the machine shop on what the cost would be for a single part.

Thank you,

David

Thank you,

I have a call and email into LASAR as well.....webite says they have them but they dont answer the phone or return emails that quickly....could be a CV thing

[Supercop0184]

I’d like a set too 

[carusoam]

Consider using the same method that the engine controls use for OPP...

I believe it works by... We send in the old part... that’s our design...  it just so happens to match the builder’s design as well...

Best regards,

Curious:  being that I contributed to the cause and was unable to get one of these and had to buy one from LASAR do I get my money back?

Hi Jim,

Let me know how much you contributed and why weren’t you able to get one of these?
