Chicago, Ill 60609-1524 tel: 773-254-0022. Their part number is FAN119. When you order say it is for your boat. When I installed my wear pad I used a strong expoxy glue and a heavy star washer under the screw. I maintain 60 pounds of air pressure in my nose wheel tire and have no shimmy problems. I have often wondered if the wear pad could be made out of a bearing material or copper, soft aluminum etc. I have found the best source for Glasair parts and problems are the people at Phoenix Composites. I regularly coat my hatch seals with talc powder and have had them on for eleven years and they look as good as new. I have the old style that came with the kit in 1990 **************Wondering what's for Dinner Tonight? Get new twists on family favorites at AOL Food.
