Spinner - cowl alignment adjustment?

Bill Wightman

Well Known Member
Whats a good way to adjust the spinner/cowl alignment? After mounting our new WW200RV prop and spinner, the spinner is sitting about 1/8" low. But I'd like to raise it 1/4" to account for a little sag in the future.

Can we washer up between the engine mount pads and firewall, or should it be done in the dynafocal mount bosses?

Thx...
 
Standard practise...

...is to add shims between the rubber engine mount and the steel mount weldment.

AN970 washers or the fancier (and more $) Lord part numbers.

It's around 3 or 4 to 1 mechanical ratio, so a 1/16 washer (a single AN970) should do the trick.
 
Thanks very much Gil. I think I understand... but just to be sure:

Here's where the AN970 would go, right?
