3" Extended Landing Gear

The landing gear vee assemblies are extended 3". This raises the wing to a higher angle of attack in the three-point altitude. The benefits are (1) a slower lift-off speed, (2) a shorter take-off run, (3) increased propeller clearance, and (4) easier and smoother soft field landings.

Why settle for less?

A. Comes with the square tubing reinforcement for 2000-lb. gross weight increase mod.

B. Heavy-Duty gussets are made of .125" 4130 steel. There is a gusset at each leg, not just the front leg as found on some HD gear. We also double the tube where the gusset is attached to further spread out the loads. The front main tube is manufactured from 1.5" x .058" 4130 tubing. The rear tube is 1.375" x .058" 4130 tubing. These are several times stronger than the original gear legs.

C. Our axles are the strongest in the industry. We start with a solid piece of 4130 steel, and machine it to exacting tolerances. We gun bore the center to the right size, and machine the bearing stops so that the caliper is positioned precisely where we want it. The original tube axles are proven to be weak. With our machined axle you won't have to wonder if your gear is up to the challenge!

Our three inch extended gear gives you a better angle of attack. It is also reinforced and more heavy duty than the stock gear. Another added benefit is that it will provide clearance for the McCauley climb prop (Borer).

Details: FAA certified. 1.25 Axle. Includes 3" extended shock struts.
