To all,
Is there anyone that will lbe willing to cast a part for me for the Academy Merkava IV LIC? I have lost a small part and I have contacted MRC on the availability of the part and they state it is not available. The part is at the rear of the hull and supports the rear idler wheel. Any other part I could fabricate, but this one is a little different to do. I do not want to spend $$$$ on a part so small and important finishing the kit. I would be willing to pay for the cast and any shipping involved.
If any one has the kit, the parts are 14C and 15C on the instruction sheet. Thanks in advance for the consideration.
Respectfully,
Tankertom .

OK, I'm may be blind and or, crazy but I'm not seeing a C14 or C15 anywhere near the rear idler wheels on this kit in my instructions. Also, the rear hull of my kit is constructed so, I would not be able to help, sorry.

I'm in the process of building the same kit, I can look tonight, but in the meantime, is your part visible in this pic?

Or this one?

According to the instruction sheet you can find here :

part C14 is the gun travel lock and part C15 is the driver's hatch...

H.P.

Yep, I've got the instruction sheet in front of me right now.
Idler mounts are C39 and C40....

Thank ro all that have replied. The parts shown at the rear of the hull are in fact the correct ones, C39 and C40 for the Merkava IV LIC. I also have the Merkava IV, the one kit that has the missing parts, and I used their instruction sheet numbers 14c and 15c for the parts. I have been a modeler for over 50 years and have much research information that might be usefull to any and all of you. Additionally, I have 36 years as a tanker, I served on the M48A1, M48A2c,M48A3, M48A5, M60 "plain jane", M60A1, M60A3TTS, M1IP, and M1A2SEP during my career in the Army. So if there is any information on these tanks, I might be able to help with research. Again, thanks to all.
