Help needed with C-85 part

Post by fcoura »

With my partner we are having A LOT of difficulty in procuring new "bushings connecting rod" part number 21369 for a C-85. We were able to buy all other parts required for our engine overhaul, except this one. Maybe there is an alternative part number we don't know. Would fellow owners help us find a provider? Living in Chile is an additional difficulty because our market for aviation parts is non-existent.

Thank you!

We are now inspecting the disassembled engine for overhaul. Our crankshaft cluster gear P/N 35016 did not pass inspection because some teeth damage. Our aeronautical authority wants us to install a new or a yellow tagged, NDI approved part. Do you guys have references of vendors to either new (I doubt there are new parts) or yellow tagged parts?

It is a C-85-F engine.

In Chile there aren't any!!!
