Cleveland 40-97A Wheel Assy
Posted: Wed Oct 25, 2017 4:06 am
Since we're talking a lot about wheels lately... What are the correct grease seal part numbers for the 40-97A 6.00 x 6 wheel?
Aircraft Spruce has one link that references the felt seals (154-0300 & 154-1300), and in another link shows the molded seals (154-12000 & 154-12400). Aviall shows the felt seals, as does Skygeek.
The latest Cleveland catalog, dated 12/31/16, shows the molded seals only with one ring seal (153-00300). Are either versions acceptable? Are the molded seals better?
Was there a change in grease seal parts over the years for the -97A? I have the felt seals, and they're getting kind of crusty, so I'm planning to replace them all in hopes of eliminating a squeaky wheel.
