on

the diffence between most models.

The attached photo is a 4R100.
He is obtaining a price on these for me tonight and i will have them

tomorrow.

Your dwg looks to have a shaft through the sun gear, where you going

srink fit this.

No attachment came through Don. Yep. Shrink fit and perhaps a bit of

welding.

I figure if it slips it will weld itself. Also braze is good for this

sort

of

thing as there is lots of area to transmit the shear torque stress.

Wife says she might get a month off. What are the chances of me getting checked out in
a local 172 and doing a bit of Aus touring by air?
