From the TCDS: Serial Nos. prior to 7912, and not listed above, are eligible for 1100 lb. maximum weight.
These airplanes are also eligible for 1170 lb. maximum weight provided the lift
struts and attachments are revised in accordance with Piper Dwgs. No. 12352,
13233 and 21642 and for further increase to 1220 lb. upon revision of the landing gear.
Does anyone have a reader's digest version of what these mods would actually entail to get the higher gross weight on the earlier Cubs?
