Re: Restoring a TriPacer in Italy
During the painting we are restoring the brakes
d739eebf-07ad-43c7-92db-3c7585bbd1f9.jpg
I have original drums with the hand levier.
Reading on this fantastic forum I understood that isn’t the best solution.
I would like to buy the vented Steve’s brake pump but I have always the idea to convert it as PA22/20...
Now we try with the original parts (new orings, new shoes, new diaphragms).
If it will be acceptable ok, otherwise we decide what to do.

Re: Restoring a TriPacer in Italy
I bought from Univair the front gear support and I welded it.
We did before fabric work if we decide to convert it.
In case we will use Univair STC (if I understand correctly) that use the front support PA22 as the rear support PA22/20
(We will not use PA18 extended gear but the PA20 gear).
I understood correctly??
In case, I will need your help!!
Thank you.

Re: Restoring a TriPacer in Italy
A question for the European members: do you know where I can find in Europe the rubber fuel hose ??
This week we would like to fix the wings and the shipping from Univair is too long now....
I think any certified fuel hose could be ok, any suggestion?
Thank you very much.
Alex.

Re: Restoring a TriPacer in Italy
There is a company in UK who makes approved fuel hoses.

We lost 1 flap spring, Univair code U14384-000
But also exist U14384-000HD
Someone of you used the HD ??
I need 1 but with this difference probably it’s better if I buy 2...
Thank you.
PS: some of you have this spring??

The HD spring is a stiffer and less prone to flap in the wind and retracts better.
