New! Universal Joint Taper Pin Removal Tool for Piper Aircraft

An affordable tool to quickly remove stuck taper pins

 

Taper Pin Removal ToolPiper AD 2010-15-10 requires inspection of the connection between the control yoke universal joint and the shaft on the forward (engine) end of the joint. Removing the taper pin that holds the shaft and u-joint together can be very difficult due to the limited space behind the panel. To make matters worse, there isn't anything solid to hammer against, and using a hammer may damage the control yoke structure or delicate avionics.

 

The McFarlane taper pin removal tool makes this job easy and safe even with the most stubborn taper pins. Simply position the tool on the u-joint and tighten the bolts until the pin breaks free.

 

This simple, affordable tool will save you hours of labor and frustration.

Available for shipping early next week!

New! Control Yoke Universal Joint Kits to Help Comply with Piper AD 2010-15-10

Save time and money searching for parts and hard to find taper reamers

 

Piper U-joint Kit

AD 2010-15-10 requires inspection of the connection between the control yoke universal joint and the shaft on the forward (engine) end of the joint. This inspection is a convenient time to replace worn out u-joints.

 

McFarlane has created kits including the u-joint, shaft, taper pins, taper reamer, drill bit and other hardware to help comply with this AD, all at a fraction of the cost of buying the parts from Piper.

 

A universal joint attaches to each control yoke shaft behind the instrument panel. Replacement of the universal joint is required if any free motion or rust around the joint pivots is detected.

  • Piper aircraft models PA28, PA28R, PA32, PA32R and PA34
  • Helps comply with AD 2010-15-10 and Piper Service Bulletin 1197C
    Note: Piper recently updated SB 1197 to revision C to allow drilling a witness hole using Piper drill fixture part number 766-585. McFarlane intends to stock this item as soon as it is available. 

Availability of some parts is limited, so place your order now to ensure quick delivery!
