A pitch change adapter at the inboard end of each yoke houses an elastomeric shear
restraint and two elastomeric lead-lag dampers. Lord has designed the elastomeric
components for on-condition replacement and a 5000 hour fatigue life. Dampers can
be replaced without disconnecting the pitch links or removing the blades. No measurement
or shimming is required.
