Avonds F-16
Can someone tell me what brand and or part number air cylinder fits the nose gear door on an Avonds F-16? I've tried the BVM #5751 and 5752 and neither one is the right one.
It actually doesn't look like a BVM cylinder unless its an older style. The end has a swivel brass ball that connects to the door. I'll try to post a pic of the bad one.

Hi Tom, He certainly is, I've talked with him numerous times. I was just hoping I could get one a little closer than Belgium! Plus the freight would be a little more than usual! If I have to I certainly will. Thanks again.

Hi, the NLG door cilinder IS a standart BVM item but is custom adjusted so no stock cilinder will fit. The piston rod has been shortend by I think 6mm or so, match with an existing one if you have, the plastic end is glued in.
