Wondering just how far this idea has progressed?

An STC would allow the proper replacement of the axle without the need for a field approval. What we need at this juncture is to get an OEM axle of the type installed on your ships.

I need one each axle from the following:

Model s/n Upper bolt Lower bolt p/n
120/140 8001-13399 1/4” 1/4” 0441107

150,A,B,C,D,E 17001-15061532 1/4” 1/4” 0441164-1
0441158-1 (6” only)

140A All 5/16” 5/16” 0441110
170/170A 18000-19219

150F,G,H,J,K All 5/16” 3/8” 0541124
170B,
172, 175,
180,A,B,C,D,E,F
182A-P

The axle does not need to be airworthy. I will be pleased to pay shipment costs. Part does need to be confirmed to be an original installation to that s/n aircraft (go through the logbooks...). One with an identifiable part number would be best. Feel free to PM me.

Thanks,
