Status: offline 		You should be able to order some nylon or delrin rod from mcmaster carr and make your own pretty easily if you can find OEM parts.

edit: found some rod here...pretty cheap too

Later version or upgrade version is bag below with brass cylinders. Same gear were used on P-51 and P-47.

Status: offline 		Robart made retracts for some of the Byron planes, mostly the ones that needed rotating gear and the T-28 for sure. The Mustang, P-47, Zero, F-15 and probably some others used Byron's plastic gear. Even the GeeBee and Ryan STA used the plastic struts on knurled stubs mounted in the wing.
