    From: helspersew@aol.com
    Larry, I bought the aluminum stock, McMaster Carr part number 9055K3 (3/4" x 1"). Just shave off the four corners and it will slide in quite nicely. I can't recall how log I cut the inserts now (my airplane is in IL.)

    Jake, Yes, I used the same 7075 insert in both ends. In the bottom you can see it was drilled and tapped to fit the J-3 forks I bought, then locked in place with the jam nut. In the top (I have a photo but can't find it at the mome nt) I rounded the end of the insert and drilled a hole for the (5/16"?) bol t that holds it to the wing spar fitting. I'll keep looking for it :O) Dan Helsper Puryear, TN -----Original Message----- From: aerocarjake <flight.jake@gmail.com> Sent: Sat, May 5, 2012 10:46 am Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: aluminum struts Dan, Did you use the same fittings on both the upper and lower ends....?

    Chris.... Those would be the ones. Thank you for finding those. Please note: There is a bit of an angle between the strut and the wing spar fitting. This can be easily accounted for as you see. Don't drill the AN4 holes until the wing is mounted and everything is all lined-up.
