Bobby,  would it be possible to make a tapered shim to line up the Barry
Mount perfectly?  Jerry

Fred used 22002-11. They are being replaced with the -14 and seem to be
holding up. I will try the -14's.

    Paul,  I can refer Bobby to stiffer Barry Mounts but maybe this
is something you would like to consider from an engineering point of
view.


    Bobby,  Your Barry Mounts are 22002-12.  They have an axial load
rating of 175 lbs. There are four stiffer versions:
    22002-13 axial load 240 lbs
    22002-14 axial load  380 lbs
    22002-15 axial load 630 lbs

    There are other Barry Mounts but they will not fit your
installation.  Only order the ones above.

    Order from AEK Technology
    818-686-1445
    Greg or Ken Holz owners.  Talk to one of them.
       
        Jerry,
       
        After 25 hours of ground runs my Berry Mounts failed. I
think I need stiffer mounts. Can you tell me which ones to order?  This
is not a heat issue. But the mounts are in slight compression with the
engine in an almost zero degree up / down thrust line. I actually have
about 1 degree of up thrust to take some of the compression off the
Berry mounts. I was hoping for first flight this weekend.
       
        Thanks,

Possibly. The top of the beam would still not be level but it might
distribute the load better. The right side looks worse in the picture
because the left side has collapsed. It's not as bad as it looks with
two good Berry mounts. Bobby

No pictures were attached. Can you send them again?
