Replacement Selection

Aircraft make, model and serial number are not sufficient to ensure the correct replacement spring as many aircraft may have been originally equipped with either one or retrofitted with a conversion kit. If the spring you are replacing is marked with a brand name (e.g. P. L. Porter or Stabilus) the correct replacement is readily identified. The coil spring/hydraulic style are also identifiable by a 1-1/4" diameter visible coil spring. The thread may also be measured to verify the correct identification.

Reviews

Perfect fit. Purchased to replace part on a pa28-181. I will mention that the install will go far easier if you can manage to compress the cylinder just slightly prior to installation. (even just an inch would be enough).

I was worried that this part might not work on my 1976 Piper Lance because the part it replaced had an external spring, and this part does not. Nevertheless, it fit and worked perfectly.
