View Full Version : UH-1F Huey help


July 23rd 05, 10:48 PM
Hello,
I've looked 'high and low' but cannot locate a Speed Decreaser Gear (SDG) to
fit a T58-GE-3 engine. I believe this motor originally flew in a UH-1F Huey.


The SDG needs to be complete, in running condition but does not require
'air-worthy' paperwork (as this for a 'non-aircraft' application) as
detailed here: http://www.weldingfaq.com/turbine2.asp



If you know where I can purchase a Speed Decreaser Gear from (or with) a
T58-GE-3 engine please e-mail me direct at larry <at> skagitmedia <dot> com
(or edit the reply address)



Thanks!
Larry

I just did- thanks!

Part of the problem is that I've not been able to identify the part number
(as I don't have an Illustrated Parts Breakdown for the UH-1F) and most
folks track parts strictly by part number.

Maybe somebody with a UH-1F pub can scan that illustration and send it to
me?

Thanks!
Larry

Try contacting Mike Dillon at:

Dillon Precision Products, Inc.
8009 E. Dillons Way
Scottsdale, AZ 85260
(480) 948-8009
http://dillonprecision.com/

Mike is into many endeavors. He makes his money selling reloading presses.
He also produces videos, and manufactures mini-guns for the Navy. His
facility is located on the Scottsdale airport and he owns a small fleet of
unique aircraft, among them a fully airworthy UH-1. He employs at least 2
full time A&Ps.

You may hve to perservere in your attempts to contact him, though I was
treated to a full tour of the facility a few years back just for asking.

Good luck,

Demonick
