Older Skymaster strut part

1 Attachment(s)

Today I lost the little screw which acts as a stopper on my Gripen nose strut. (see pic of the part on one of the main strut). Anyone knows where to get one? I have an older Skymaster Gripen. I'm not sure what brand the struts are.

Thanks

Arnaud

Arnaud, if you need one turned down I can do that on my lathe for you buddy. I have the same screws in my Skymaster F-15 so I can check the threading and fit.

Ian, thanks for the offer, I did not know you were a lathe master!

Being of the impatient kind, I have re-tapped the strut to a 8/32 size and used a modified 8/32 bolt. It works with very little play.

Thanks for all the answers.

Arnaud
