Listerati,
I=E2=80=99m working on the Spitfire=E2=80=99s traverse leaf swing spring re=
ar suspension and can=E2=80=99t find locally the 7/16=E2=80=9D =C2=A0fine t=
hread (20 tpi) by 3 1/2=E2=80=9D bolts that were holding the vertical link =
and to the=C2=A0trunnions and to the swing spring bushings.
I can find the right sizes in a coarse thread (12 tpi) grade 8 bolt and tha=
ts my plan. The old ones are grade 5 or in one case a bolt with no slash ma=
rks on top. I don=E2=80=99t know what it is.
=C2=A0Do these bolts need to be fine thread for any particular reason, e.g.=
for safety, torque specs, etc.? Is a grade 8 bolt a good idea where it wil=
l be stressed with all the up and down motion with the vertical link? Too b=
rittle? Usually I go for grade 8 whenever possible but I=E2=80=99ve heard t=
here are instances where it might not be the best solution.
An aside for Thanksgiving:=C2=A0My son and his wife teaching in Shanghai sa=
id the Chinese love to celebrate American holidays (they know them from Ame=
rican TV and movies) but their take on Thanksgiving is that you thank peopl=
e who do nice things for you. So they got cards from their students thankin=
g them for teaching. Kind of a different twist but a good one I thought.
Happy Thanksgiving to all.
