Where/who do I go to in the USA to purchase the correct spec cotter pins to retain/secure the hub nuts? Rossco
Well if my google-fu is up to par, I did the following search... NSN 5315-00-011-9120 which lead me to https://military-fasteners.com/pins/cot ... S24665-287 but unfortunately there is a minumum $40 purchase at this site so that eventually lead me to http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/h ... rpins2.php for the same MS24665-287 part # which is also AN380-3-5. Came out to just under $7 shipped for 100. Should cover repacking another 25+ years. :D
