n the Feb 2021 issue, but please allow me to add my top tips. Change tires
and tubes in a clean area of your hangar, so grit and metal chips won
=99t get trapped between tire carcass and tube. Baby powder contains oi
ls that will attack your tubes, Brown Aircraft EC880 silicone powder is a b
etter choice. Reinstall valve cap right after inflating, so grit doesn
=99t get into valve causing leaks. New molded seals 154-13000 are super
ior to oiled felt washers used on common 5=9D wheels in keeping grit
out of bearings. Upgrade Nitrile caliper piston O-rings to Viton or Fluoro
silicone for high temperature resistance to compression set. Modern wheel
weights are no longer Lead, they are Steel or Zinc and a lot more are neede
d to balance. MIL-H-5606 fluid has been superseded by fully compatible far
less flammable MIL-PRF-87257 fluid. Mobil SHC100 is the Parker Hannifin p
referred bearing grease. Use high temperature ceramic grease on anchor pin
s going into torque plate.

Where can we get a good price on that 154-13000 seal? They are over $50 ea
ch everywhere I looked. Has anyone found a NAPA or other non-aircraft part
number that we EXPERIMENTAL type can use?

I haven't ordered from her in years (not flying enough to need parts),
but I used to get good prices & service from Linda Lou in Memphis TN.
Worst case, you waste a phone call.

I replaced them just on the nosewheel last condition inspection and at the
time was unable to find a cross or a discounted price. Maybe one of the
EAA chapters near Parker Hannifin Avon, OH could arrange a bulk buy BOGO.
They are really nice.
