Title: MCI baggage door locks
Post by: PRZNBUS on September 16, 2015, 12:09:44 PM
Is there a better way than paddle locks to lock the baggage doors on a 1986 MC9?

I don't have these but Paul Elbisser recommends them. He can tell you where to get them. http://www.incredibus.com/locks.htm (http://www.incredibus.com/locks.htm)

I have the air locks . as they age they all leak so I installed a master air valve to turn on or off the air that locks and unlocks the doors .
all is good now

I don't have any leaks if it does happens I have a set of new spares,if and when I find a buy on Norgren valves I am going to control each door with a separate switch I don't care for the 2 controls for all doors

I have air locks. Some of the lines leak. I made some metal clips that I slip over the end of the piston to keep them from locking when I don't what to use them.
