Title: VariEze Parts availability
Post by: davidschuck on February 27, 2005, 07:44:35 PM
I've recently purchased a VariEze about 90% completed and cannot find any wing attachment bolts listed anywhere. Anyone know where I may aquire them. I also need a few other parts (mostly canard brackets) and I can't tell if Brock has them or not from the pictures. Any help would be much appreciated. Supplier lists for VariEze have been hard to come across.

Brock is the only supplier of EZ fittings that I know of. Spruce or Wicks has everything else.
Check the Canard Pushers, I believe that Burt OK'd Grade 8 bolts at one point for the Varieze wing attach fittings.The flight loads are carried by the cup and the bolt is just there to keep the cups snug.
Do not try to cut longer threads on AN bolts as they can fail where the new threads are cut.
