429 Auxiliary Hydraulic Pump Drive Seal Work Aid
P/N 429AHPS
$105.00
 
This is another of the locally manufactured work aids that Bell has in their manuals. All you need is a local machine shop that works cheap or you can run to town and pickup a lathe and  a couple hundred dollars of material to make what you need. Or give me a call and let me know which work aids you are needing. I should be able to help you out and save you time and money. You don't have to run around town looking for a machine shop and don't end up with a lathe taking up space in your hangar.

Rotor brakes, flight controls in the tailboom, or fuel controls will now be a breeze. Hundreds of other uses (home or work).
