Corsair wheel bearing P/N needed

Thu Apr 20, 2017 4:58 pm

Does anyone have the part numbers for the main gear wheel bearings for a F4U Corsair? I've looked in the IPC but it doesn't break it down past a wheel assembly.

Thanks

The Structural Repair Manual has the wheel assembly as 1 part too. While it does not appear to have this answer for you, I would recommend a subscription to the AirCorps Library http://aircorpslibrary.com/ if you do not already have one... 12 Corsair Manuals and counting plus 214 un-categorized construction drawings (the bearing part number might be on one of them, I just did a quick search) ...

Just checking the Erection & Maintenance Handbook, Bearing cone (Inboard) 39250, Bearing cone (Outboard) 375, Bearing Cup (Inboard) 39422, Bearing Cup (Outboard) 374. Hope that helps.

Eric.
