Anyone know of a source for the rivets that hold the pulley to the fan on a six? I have completely restored my assembly and this is the missing piece. |

There's a guy on Pelican that restores the fans and IIRC he has a source for the rivets.

Try Aircraft Spruce. You need a structural pop rivet (aka Cherry Rivets) but you'll need the puller as well. Your regular pop rivet puller won't do it. http://www.aircraftspruce.com/pdf/2017Indi...al/Cat17095.pdf

I have a box of them and I'll never restore that many fans. I'll send you some. You want a bunch? Or just enough to do one fan (with some spares)?

Just enough for one fan would be awesome. You can ship them with my hook if you like? I really just do the weld repairs on fans and housings and do the correct coating I don't want to compete with the guys like Shaun And Jay who do the cosmetic restores.. But in this case I want to do my own. |
