Title: Bellcrank mod
Post by: Tim Chenevert on March 04, 2018, 07:26:59 PM

I need a push rod hole 7/16” from the pivot point on a bellcrank. Can the rest of the push rod arm be cut away to save space? This is a nylon Brodak bellcrank. The bellcrank needs to move more towards the centerline. Thanks, Tim

I just did that to a Brodak Nylon that the pushrod arm was too long.   Make sure you don't cut too close to the push rod. D>K

Agreed. Leave what you can, but no problems cutting away what's unused.
