But the end result is even more harsh.

I agree with all the above posts. We never met, but I considered him a friend.

You might be surprised. Changing from 1 1/2 to 3 inch extensions made a large difference.

Sorry, mine are installed on my plane.

McDonals observatory in west texas is worth the trip.

I agree, it was a very good Mooney trip, but that was quite a few years ago. -
And I thought I was being held up, when I bought one from a place in Florida, many years ago for $50.

Any idea about how robust it is? Do you think you could inflate 4 car tires in a row, from zero to 30 psi or so.
-
I admit that checking the pressure on the tires takes a couple of minutes longer than without hub caps. And adds maybe ten minutes to the time it takes to inspect the bearings, but I have a little difficulty with the "heating up the wheel bearings" concept.
-
My hangar elf built my hub caps and put appropriately placed holes for checking the pressures. The holes are covered by "snap-in" plugs, and a tire stem extension used to connect the gauge.
-
But hub caps make a plane LOOK 10 knots faster.

Was Delrin the material used by Mooney? It appears it is readily available and not too terribly expensive. It looks like anyone with a lathe and halfway reasonable skills should be able to make them. Am I missing something?

Pinecone. Please double (triple/quadruple) check. I have never made or sold any. At one time or another, I may have looked under my seat and seen one, but otherwise I don't ever remember laying eyes on one.

Sorry, Someone made an error. I don't do seat rollers. Maybe I ought to start

Not denying your statement, but do you or anyone know how many failures and how many deaths? -
