Re: Pre/Post War Wings

I have the tools to repair the prewar ribs, they are easy to fix. You need to use the kit from Univair for supercubs. Tim

Re: Pre/Post War Wings

I have pre war wings 15 rib truss style, but also have 1 13 rib truss style wing to be used for parts. Finding the truss style ribs can be hard to do-just as Larry, he had a search going for a long time. The 15 rib wings allows for a higher gross weight.
You might actualy find it to be best to part out the pre war wings to make a buck and stick with the post war as parts for these can be found quite easily. Pre war ribs have gone for up to $150 a piece and there is a set of wings on Ebay asking price of 2g but they have been there a while.
Yeah nice to see the site up and working again.

My project has post war wings that are repairable but in pretty rough shape, over the holidays I purchased another project with pre war wings that seem to be less work than my stamped rib wings, I need some opinions on which wings I should use. Thanks in advance, and glad to see the site up and running again!
