Hinge Pins

Post by Champ Dreamer »

I have completed my re-cover job and am about to reassemble my Champ. I want to replace the hinge pins on the rudder and elevators (AN394-71) and have been unable to find them after checking the usual suspects (Univair, Spruce, Wicks Wag). Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Brian Walker

For the hard to find hardware, I've always had good luck with Genuine Aircraft Hardware.

But this is the current replacement.

Be sure to request a catalog. As thick as Spruce's with nothing but hardware!
