I can make new molds and parts if I can get an uncut spinner and backplate
to
work from. If not, I can work from mine but it takes more work. How many
people are interested?

Ron,
I know this is really late but do you still have any of the nose gear
modification parts left? Where did you have yours done?
Thanks,
Tom

Having done modification last year, I still have about 7 inches left
over (you only need about 3-1/2") from the Aircraft Spruce purchase of
4130 STEEL TUBE 1X.188 1FT
Part #: 03-06800-1 to make this modification (along with your own 5/8"
bolt, etc.). $5 plus shipping cost, its yours. Add another $5 and I'll
include 2 brand new belleville washers.

Clarke Coulter just reported his nose gear failed on take off. His
landing was uneventful but the plane did sustain damage. His nose gear
is the Aerodesigns gear with the spindle shaft welded inside a collar.
Since the failure is occurring inside the collar, there is no way to
inspect.
If you have one of these nose gears you should look on the forum to see
what modifications others have done to make this area stronger and easy
to inspect. It could save you from having to rebuild your aircraft.
