Hi guys,
Enroute to Mexico the right blower fan decided to part company with the gear-box shaft. Would like to change blower gearbox while I'm gettin' dirty. Fan rivet holes have ovaled, left fan showing stress cracks so should replace both drum fans.
Any suggestions for local suppliers ? (Assume MC9 parts are the same)
Thanks,
Perry Blanch

Have parts will travel ! Thanks all for the emails and phoned suggestions. Local bus company had the required parts at a reduced price as they no longer run MCIs...a win-win situation :-)
