Default Strut Attachment Brackets

Anybody know of a source for strut attachment brackets (not sure what else to call them) but I'm looking for something similar to the one in the picture? I need it to connect a rod from a 3/4" diameter strut to the gear door.

Thanks,

Craig

Hi Craig,

I believe BVM has those fittings although I'm not sure if they have 3/4" . What you might be able to use are the brake line clips (gizmos) that I use as well. They come in all strut diameters and are available from Dreamworks and Tamjets etc.

Hope this helps.

Adil,

The brake line clips are not secure enough to support/retain my forward facing gear door. I don't see the more robust type fittings I'm looking for on BV's web site. I may give them a call.

Thanks,

Craig

PS: Nice job getting that wheeless F-14 back on the deck!
