My 48 has this access panel. I have no idea if it left the factory this way

That looks like my old one I removed from my plane when I re-skinned the wings.

The 170 and the 170A will be the same with the exceptions of course those new things added to the A the 170 didn't have. One this comes to mind is the fuel lines and the fuel selector would be different between the 170 and the 170A. The 170A being preferred. However you'll have to look at the fuel ...

I very interested in the Airworx STC. Although my engine is around 1000SMOH so changing the engine is not on my short list, yet.... My neighbour at my home base airport has an early 172, under the owner maintenance category, (Canada). He just picked up an overhauled 0-300 that has been massaged with...

Looks like the lower cowl has the newer air scoop inlet. I did the same to my 48, my old inlet was pretty much destroyed after years of vibrations. Looks like a fun project.

I bought five new ones from Military Fasteners in Melbourne FL. Yep five, the cost didn’t matter I needed two and bought five. They were part number MS20005-6, inboard fastener. The outboard is a different dash length

Yes and it’s impossible to install any bolt regardless of type back into the inboard position with the head on the top surface. I have new NAS145-14 and -18.

View of the aft stab attachment showing why there is no way to install the original inboard bolts head up,. NOTE: the stabilizer is positioned upside down for the picture.

A3B5488D-3FDD-461F-AE7A-EBEC1C5122FB.jpeg I did a search before I asked the question regarding alternate aft vertical stabilizer hardware, that is why Im replying to this older post. Installation of the original NAS145-14 (2) inboard location is not possible due to the way the original attachment w...

Poncho73 The lowest one of the 3 bearings is pn A-325-1 or A325-1 as in this post which might help you. https://forum.cessna170.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2271&start=0 In that post it is stated as follows: "The original bearing PN A325-1 (superceded to S1003-11A) lists for $10.70&q...

Thanks

Like the original posters, it’s a 48. S/N 18573, sorry didn’t include that, just replied to the first post. I will post the part number later.

Sorry, I needed to re-open an old post. Where did you get a new bearing and bushing from for the lower rudder hinge point. FYI the lower fuselage hinge bolt is an AN3.

I have 1953 170B. I’ve noticed that when parked on level ground one wing is lower. In fact there is a 6 inch difference at the wing tips from ground to top of tip between left and right wings Aircraft cabin is level . Aircraft taxis straight and is mostly in trim in flight. Any ideas? Dan Waters Bl...

Forward spar crack at the trim cable inlet hole. Doesn’t appear to be any repairs out there. I should add this was the start of the removal.
