Fortunately for me, James donated one used clevis (can't thank him enough) and I was able to purchased a second used one from Texas Aircraft Salvage for $95.

Now that I've stripped off the old paint and polished these up I'm wondering if these have to be repainted. Anyone know what type of steel these are made out of? Will they rust if left unpainted.

I also noticed that one has an extra hole in it that the other does not have. Is this a problem? I'm assuming this extra hole is for inspection purposes so one can verify there is a sufficient amount of threaded steering rod inside the clevis before locking it down.


I believe mine are unpainted and it seems to be a non-issue. Not sure what to tell you about the hole, but your assumption makes sense...
