Looking at the manual it calls for a space OR9 and was wondering if anyone knew the dimensions of this spacer.  



I'm converting my mono kit to a trigear and some of the parts have already been assembled or already taken out of the bags so I'd like to be able to identify them.  







Thank you,

Kyle,



It is 0.20" long and fits an AN-3 bolt or screw (OD=0.25" & ID=0.19").

Identifying the small bushes can be a problem.



To help I have put up a table I created this year with the details I have.

When I get round to it I will add some notes on what they are used for.



Have a look at the Club web site.

Then click the link to "Spacers and bushes"

Ian,



Excellent job!  We've needed something like this for years.  If I can find my old inventory listing, I'll see if I scan it in and pass it on.

Ian and Bob,



Thank you for your replies.  

Another thought is a list of US part that shipped to Europa and are renamed would be helpful as well; for instance the main gear axle castle nuts are from Matco.

No need to look for your inventory list as I have them for the Tri-gear.



I also have a parts index done by Rowland Carson (for a mono) which could

also be helpful.  The problem is finding the time to make the go through and

cross check everything.

I also have a list of the source of many parts which we started to create at

the time of insolvency in 2004.  I have been adding to it in the years

since.  Andy Draper also has various records which could be useful.



As time permits I will publish as much as possible on the Club web site.

Ian,



I'd be happy to help create PDF's of this information if you would like to send some to me. 



Thank you,

All



A similar table of spacer and bush details is available in the combined build manual, chapter 1, page 4.
