PULL RIVETS

For those of you who do not wish to use the solid (bucked) rivets, a quantity of 4000 Avex #1604-0412 and 300 Avex #1661-0414 will be needed.

 For those hardy souls who decide to use as many bucked rivets as possible, you will still need about 1000 Avex #1604-0412.

 

SUSPENSION SPRINGS

Note: If you opt for the suspension-type gear, you'll need 2 for the taildragger or 3 for the trigear.  These springs are Die (as in "tool and die") springs, 1 1/4" OD, 4 1/2" free length.  Spring constant = 160 lbs. per inch.  They are blue in color and are made by PRODUCTO, cat # MP-59.  Check your yellow pages for a local supplier or go to a tool and die maker where you may be able to get used springs for nothing.  By no means are you limited to this type of spring since valve springs for a diesel engine have even been used.  Whatever spring you decide upon, check it's spring constant by compressing it with a known weight and measuring the deflection of the spring.
