Anyone know where I can find a trailing link nose wheel like the one seen in the attached pic for my Avid Flyer Speedwing?

That is not a "Trailing Link" like is used on Cessnas, Pipers, ect.  Those "Castoring nosewheels" came out with Grumman planes - RV-A models now and Kitfox - my understanding is that some attach to engine mount and others to welded fittings on firewall.  Look on ebay / Barnstormers?  Better attachment for Avids was like spring-loaded one I just sold to ChrisB - No longer made.  EDMO

Steve-

FYI... there was a KF7 nose gear with shock, wheel, two tires, tail skid and wheel pant posted in the Teamkitfox forum classifieds 30mins ago for $500+ shipping. I would have grabbed it for my A+ if I wasn't going on floats. Good luck.

Low price.  I think Kitfoxes gets 1500 for one without the wheelpant.  JImChuk
