The number 95 is the main frame of Bell Hub at the wind power center.

Jud are you sure about that ? My three all have A on them and also according to the parts list it should be A.

Dan yes, it has A and something after the A, but 95 a safe distance before the A in the middle of the main frame.

Judd is the 95 etched in the frame if so for some reason they might have etched the year it was manufactured that's the only explanation I can think of.

Dan,

No its cast. It sure is bold like a part number. I was wondering if it was the year as well, but I've never seen that cast in with part number quality besides the patent dates on the oil bath aermotors. So i suppose its possible if the pattern maker wanted it or was directed to do that. Curious to look at other bell hub frames now!

Judd by any chance is that a power mill cause that frame would be different and that would explain the 95 being cast on it ?
