    Default Part#'s for KF5 Rod-end bearings anyone?

    Does anyone knwo the Aurora/Heim part numbers of the two rod-end bearings used under the pilot seat from Aircraft Spruce?

    These are the high-rotation rod-ends that hook the flaperon bellcrank to the tube that 'rotate' when pulling aft elevator. Already placed my order from KF, so hoping to find these from Aircraft Spruce since I"m ordering anyway.

    Thx!

    93001. I thought I could get them added to my Aircraft Spruce order but I may be underestimating their availability - i dug thru the Aurora bearing catalog and couldn't for sure find the right one....

    If someone does have the rod end manufacturer part # i can get it from Aircraft Spruce.... not sure if Kitfox still has them for my KF5, waiting to hear back.

    I think you may have the wrong part number.. 93002.101 is the one that attaches the elevator push-pull tube to the idler bellcrank. We have them in stock.

    Debra emailed that they weren't in stock. The one I need is the 'male'high misalignment rod end of the male/female pair that alllows the rotation of fore and aft stick, just under the pilot's left leg. Given that better description, is that 93002.101 and if so what's the price?

    Thx John!

    Unfortunately, that one is 93001.000 and we are currently out. It connects between the control column and the aileron idler bellcrank.

    Are you currently AOG for this part ?

    Not really AOG, it's got some light scuffing on it from interference with the tube that I plan to repair (aircraft is new to me) so I was going to replace it just out of caution. I think it will pass annual inspection without concern. Thanks for checking John! ~Wild
