donkaye Posted February 1, 2016 Report Posted February 1, 2016 As many of you know the Plessey Gear Actuator is no longer made. The back-spring is also no longer available. I just removed mine and replaced it with a rebuilt one assembled by Top Gun. Mark from Top Gun says they have parts for only one more rebuild. A new Eaton gear actuator is about $15,000. My gear actuator has 571 hours on it since back-spring replacement, so there is still useful life remaining. I also have a spring from the last replacement. If anyone is interested in these for any reason, make an offer off forum. Quote

If a rebuilt actuator is even available, I think they used to run about $10K. Laser had them. Tom Rouch from Top Gun is not refurbishing them any more. I knew that Tom was getting ready to retire, so I bit the bullet and had him rebuild one while I still could. Quote
