Hey guys,
I'm missing some much needed trim system components (new project). If anyone has any of the following laying around I'd be much obliged.

Thanks in advance.

Lee - I have a spare brand new bearing when you need it.

I have a trim-nut that you could heli-coil maybe. My local machinist (gunsmith) made me a jackscrew for $30.

Thanks Dick, hold on to that bearing though. I should have left that off my crude drawing, that one I can pic that up fairly easily. In fact I have the 689 blocks as well. all the rest is still need though.

Alright that's 1 down (thanks Tom!) ... still need the 686, 703 and 704. Truth be told the bearing block is the biggie, I can make the rest easily enough.

If I remember correctly. a 3/8 bolt and a small lathe makes a simple jack screw.

Thanks everyone, I was contacted offline looks like I've got it taken care of.

Tom, thanks but hold on to what you have, I'm buying the entire trim installation off another salvaged airplane. Thanks for the offer!
