One & one-half days remaining on this auction, but, currently NO BIDS.!!!! Item number: 320202045570 Also, Item number: 320199449650 And, Item number: 320199592181 Hope this helps someone. gtb ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 01:30:14 PM PST US Subject: Kolb-List: Re: Kolbs PARTS on eBay From: "R. Hankins" No surprise that there are no bids! The first item is a pair of bent beyond repair gear legs. The second is a pair of wing struts with a beginning bid of $175 plus fifty odd bucks for shipping. The third is a full swivel tailwheel being offered at slightly less than brand new price. The tail spring rod attached to it is bent. >From the gear leg and tail wheel spring condition, these items appear to me to be off of a damaged airplane. Why anyone thinks they could sell them for next to new prices while stating that "airworthiness must be determined by the buyer" is beyond me. -------- Roger in Oregon 1992 KXP 503 - N1782C Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=156208#156208 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 03:33:26 PM PST US From: Dana Hague Subject: Re: Kolb-List: Re: Kolbs PARTS on eBay At 04:29 PM 1/5/2008, R.

It looks like a good light tailwheel for a Kolb, though... any idea of the manufacturer? Is there a website? I'd like to put a swivel tailwheel on my Ultrastar. -Dana -- I can see clearly now, the brain is gone... ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 03:48:54 PM PST US From: ElleryWeld@aol.com Subject: Re: Kolb-List: Re: Kolbs PARTS on eBay That tail wheel is exact same thing I got from TNK for 313.00 if I remember corectly for my firestar Ellery in Maine do not archive **************Start the year off right.

Now I would prefer the 6" wheel of the same make or, better yet, the soft rubber solid wheel from Maule. I had one of those and they are excellent. The only barrier is that I will have to create an adapter from the flat spring mount. BB On 5, Jan 2008, at 6:27 PM, Dana Hague wrote: > > At 04:29 PM 1/5/2008, R.

Hankins, Perhaps the reason why there are no bids ,those of us that have a few hours in a KOLB already have these parts under the work bench or hanging on he wall in our shop, at least I do.
