scottfromiowa Posted February 25, 2010 Report Posted February 25, 2010 Quick question regarding yoke modification in pre-J Mooney. Purchased yokes and shafts, but there were NO pins/bolts or set screws for installation. I called my area Mooney service center and was told that it calls for an AN4-23A Bolt...I received and it is a bolt vs. a pin and hasa washer and locking nut. Does anyone have these yokes? Do yours have a bolt/nut vs. a pin? Thanks for your replies, Scott Quote
Scott Aviation Posted February 25, 2010 Report Posted February 25, 2010 Scott, I've got a 77 201 and just removed my yokes for powder coating. They do infact have the bolt going through the side, washers and nylock nut, I remember this quite clearly because they also had a set screw hidden in the back that needed to come out aswell, found that out the hard way when they wouldn't come off easily. It's a good heads up for anyone removing their 201 style yokes for repaint etc. I took a couple of screenshots from my 201 parts manual, hopefully it will help explain things better. From the parts manual item 10, the bolt used is an AN4-24A. Good luck, Chris Quote
scottfromiowa Posted February 26, 2010 Author Report Posted February 26, 2010 Thanks Chris! Perfect. I did also receive the two set screws (separate bag). They are small and would indeed be easy to miss! Thanks again for the response and the parts photo. Very helpful. Scott Quote
scottfromiowa Posted February 26, 2010 Author Report Posted February 26, 2010 Quick addendum...The bolt(s) I received was an AN4-23A vs. your AN4-24A...called Mooney service center parts...just to confirm and the only difference is one thread on the bolt...same diameter etc... Scott Quote
