Skymaster Viper nose gear
I have looked all over and can not find, unless I'm looking in the wrong spot, for the big Viper O rings for the nose gear. I have contacted skymaster but they dont know when they will have any in stock to send me. Does anyone know the size of the O rings in the nose gear? I'm thinking I can find them at maybe BVM or Dreamworks but just dont konw the size.
Thanks,
Chris

I'm thinking it might be in here. LOL and probably every O ring ever made for a jet.

I had the same issue in my Viper. Took them apart, cleaned with alcohol, lube, reinstalled and used a thicker oil than the one supplied by Skymaster. I usually use oils that are made for shock absorbers of rc cars.
No more leakage and the gear doesn't loose air.
