propblast 0 #1 July 15, 2013 Anyone know the correct nomenclature for the harness for a B4 container? How about the 4 pin ripcord? Better yet anyone know where I can find them. Propblast Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JerryBaumchen 1,048 #2 July 15, 2013 Hi prop, Give me some time to look at mine. I put a 'Wanted' in the classifieds here & got one right away. It should work for you, JerryBaumchen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

councilman24 36 #4 July 16, 2013 Poynter's Vol I 9.5.3 lists all of the components for B-4 and B-12 assm. Harnesses are 50J6858 (older capewell) and 59J6706 (newer capewell) Ripcords are also listed. I'll let you look.Searching for the proper part numbers is a nightmare when some pilot brings you a 1950's rig. I've seen every mix you can imagine of Navy, Airforce and Army components.

lekstrom10k 0 #9 July 19, 2013 Try not to get a Navy rig as it had a goofy pin system. The third pin down had double grommets for the two pin hole pilot chute. If its Olive drab its Army . If its sage green it was Air force. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
propblast 0 #10 August 11, 2013 Well, I am learning that lesson the hard way. I have bought two rip cords and they both have been for the navy NB-8 and are the wrong pin config. One day I will have this rig together I swear BTW. I think I will just stay here as I like this section so much more than SC. Propblast Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
