Sonex/AeroVee engine mount upgrade?

Postby jwd3ca » Sat Jan 17, 2015 6:34 pm

Greetings...

I've heard that there was a 4130 tube wall thickness change from .035 to .0xx at some point in the past. Can anyone clarify this for me? Thanks!

Check the service bulletins on the Sonex website. SNX-SB-005 says that mounts shipped before June 2005 have some .035 tubes that were upgraded to .049.
