Before and after photos of some pulleys.  Still need to finish tightening the hardware.

One reason why I am changing out the old hardware. All if not most is at least 70 years old. It’s showing its wear. These are the seat pivot pins. One old and one new.  You can see the wear on the pin from pivoting the seat back so passengers can get into the back seat. 

Installed the fuel selector valve, shaft, and knob.  See past posts on cleaning and reassembly of this valve.  Univair offers a new valve for $400.  This one was locked up, but it works great now. 

Installed the elevator trim tab control.

Two of the four bolts that hold the engine and mount to the rest of the airframe. They sure look small for holding all that weight; 323.5 lbs. plus the propeller and all that torque. 

It’s back on its landing gear. I finished the last strut today and Aaron helped me get the gear mounted.

On its gear again.  New tires look pretty nice and they seem to hold air.  

Landing gear legs attached to the landing gear shock struts.  Struts were disassembled, cleaned, polished, O’rings replaced, cylinders honed, reassembled, and then serviced with 5606 fluid.

Finally got one apart after soaking it for days. I cleaned it up and installed a new O-ring. Then I installed it to check the fit. 

Update :  working in the right side. This one came apart easily and is in somewhat better shape.
