Hi! Tim ....I require a vernier measured outside diameter identified of each
drive bush, similarly the torque tube AND EACH side of the centre bush in
vertical and horizontal positions (some are out of round to the inside
diameter!)
So availability is 6 weeks from receipt of order, payment AND dimensions.
Regards
Bob Harrison.

I take it your clamps are available and fit all Europa Aircraft or do they
