Jim, the 4140 was a mistake on my part. The change will be to 4340. Jerry

According to Harmon Lange today, 6150 steel as specified in the TW
plans for landing gear is no longer available. When he runs out of
raw material, that will be it. A switch to 4140 steel will probably
take place.
How about 4340 steel which is available from ACS? I made up a tailwheel spring
to Steve's specification of hardness and it performs well. This is a chromium-nickel-molybdenum
alloy with deeper hardenability than the 4140 series.
It is usually refered to as a spring steel material and has 110,000 psi tensile
strength in the annealed condition. Any other experience with this particular
steel?

Jim, I don't remember about the Cassutt gear. Harmon definitely
told me the switch would be to 4340 for the Tailwind gear. Main
thing is that there is a suitable substitute available. I think
Harmon has a few sets of 6150s in stock I have three sets that I am
holding to go with engine mount orders.
It was 10 degrees lasts night and the wind will get your attention.
I flew two hours in January, two in Feb and once this month so far for
about 20 minutes. Got my fingers crossed for April. I hope to fly
up to Baraboo soon if the weather gods will ever forgive m for taking
them so lightly. Jerry

I just checked my Cassutt plans. They call out 9260 mill rolled spring stock heat
treated to Brinnel 40-42 after fabrication. I don't know what Ib is selling
for the aluminum gear. By the way, if anyone has a need for steel main gear
and aluminum axles for a Cassutt, let me know.

Jerry, Let me know when and if you are going to build the motor mount for the
tri gear 0-320 and if so will you include the gear legs or not also about how
much it will cost. Hope I'm not asking too much at one time. Any response
will be appreciated. Thanks Alex
