Pilots seat bungee cord length?

[Jason]

Hello all.... this weeks request for help:

Anyone know the required length of the pilot's seat bungee cord as fitted to Harvard IV aircraft?
(Schick-Johnson type square backed seats)

Front seat cord p/n: 49-53122
Rear seat cord p/n: 66-53122

I couldn't find any reference in any of the manuals & unfortunately I don't have any originals.

I am pretty certain they are different to other AT-6/SNJ/Harvard types, but may be the same as fitted to a T-6G??

As always... any help greatly appreciated!

I could not find 66-53122.
49-53122 calls for the shock cord to be total length before wrapped around thimble 61"x 1/2. The drawing references 80# +-5 when extended to 62". I am confused about that comment. I tried to copy the pdf with no luck.
The parts dvd's have this drawing and are well worth the cost.
good luck

I know the bungee lengths are written somewhere on the back wall of our hangar.
Just heading to the airport now and will let you know.

If you PM me with your email I will send a pdf of the drawing.

I could not find 66-53122.

The P/N 66-53122 came from the Harvard IV parts book EO-05-55A-4.

Have sent a PM regarding the drawing.

Thanks for the assistance!
