| Subject: | Cleveland Wheels - parts breakdown |
Hard to believe its almost been a year since the RV-10 started flying. A year
of flying goes by waaaaay faster than a year of building!
In the process of inspecting my brakes, tires, wheel bearings, etc, I discovered
that one of the felt seals that sits in the molded cup had been torn.
I cant seem to find a parts breakdown for the Cleveland mains and would like to
order a few extra seals to keep on the shelf.
A local parts house had a seal of the right diameter but too thick. So I trimmed
it down and made it fit. But Id still like to identify the correct part
number and possibly even the correct bearings (with the timken auto equivalent
part numbers).
That would be very helpful if one of you had it.
As far as the inspection goes on the lower end of the airplane. (120ish Hours
and Im guessing around 200 cycles - need to check the exact number).
The tires needed to be flipped on their wheels. The two outboard treads were
gone on the left main. The right main had a little more tread than the left but
not much. The center and inboard edges were pretty much untouched.
Ill easily be able to run these tires for another year and will have to replace
them next year.
The felt seal on the right main needed replaced as it was torn in two places.
I was worried about the corrosion issues that Dave Saylor experienced with his
plane that sat. Mine was good. All bearings and races looked new and were
repacked with Aeroshell 5 (since it got time this far corrosion free). The only
bearing that showed some wear was the right main where the seal broke. It
shows a tiny amount of wear but nothing to worry about.
At the end of phase 1, I had reset my breakout force. But in rechecking it is
was ridiculously light. So I reset it again.
Other than that, no issues down low. Pretty straight forward and minimal stuff
to fix....

A little off topic but Don and Kelly are correct. Running LOP is much easier on
the engine. CHTs typically drop 30 F when you lean, and that is probably the
best measure of engine stress.
Swapping injector orifices is easy. Balance the flow and run LOP. I typically
burn 10 gph or less in cruise, depending on altitude.
And air is cheaper than fuel.

It is the correct page. Note that the molded seals are nice, similar to
what Matco uses on the nose wheel. However, be sitting down when you
price those gems. Felt works fine, especially if you are going to
re-pack the bearings every year. You are doing great. Watch your brake
pads. Depending on amount of use, you may very well need to change pads
before your next year is up.

Thanks For reminding me Kelly. I meant to say the pads look really good. But
I will watch them at fill-time.
I think the wear is a direct correlation to our runway length. Weve got 5,500
on an uncontrolled field, so I can usually ride a mile long wheelie from the touchdown
point all the way to the hangar area. Minimal braking here on the home
field - most of the time.

I always use a pair of digital calipers and measure my brake pads.=C2- G
ives you pretty good idea how many hours, and/or how many months uses up ho
