These wheels have all the same exact numbers on them that I can see, front and back. Yet they are not the exact same. Why? TIA
Whose exact part numbers? Cessna? One guess is various OEMs use different vendors for mfg of the same P/Ns and can usually be tracked via a vendor number.have all the same exact numbers
Yes cessna part number right out of the book.Whose exact part numbers? Cessna? One guess is various OEMs use different vendors for mfg of the same P/Ns and can usually be tracked via a vendor number.
If the part numbers are the same out of the book, check to see if there is any aircraft serial number breaks that may explain the difference. Look for any other different number on the wheel halves. I dont recall having this issue before but talk with your mechanic or a call to Cessna tech support with all the info you can find on the wheels should get it sorted out one way or another.Are they legal to use on my plane since they are the correct part numbers for my model 172?
Thanks, I did show em to my mechanic and he says to use them since the part numbers are correct. First I though it was a cleveland since they are smooth on the outer rim like these both but say Mcauly right in the casting. The Letter and numbers are correct for my serial number 172 according to the parts book and what came off the plane.If the part numbers are the same out of the book, check to see if there is any aircraft serial number breaks that may explain the difference.
