milotron Posted January 17, 2018 Report Posted January 17, 2018 hi, Anybody know what the 'normal' condition of the shock mounts under the KG-102 should be? I look at the ones in my 1981 K and the appear to be settled and bottomed out. If I lift the gyro assembly, there is more give in the mounts, but they settle back down again. I would think that these are worn out and not likely doing the gyro any good. Where can replacements be found? Anybody know part numbers? iain
Guest Posted January 18, 2018 Report Posted January 18, 2018 Iain, The gyro should not settle in the mounts, it should not flop back and forth. As I recall the mounts are quite expensive, but way less than rebuilding the gyro. Ive bought them from our local avionics shop, Kitchener Aero. Clarence
milotron Posted January 18, 2018 Author Report Posted January 18, 2018 Thanks Clarence. I'll look into this. iain

Guest Posted February 11, 2018 Report Posted February 11, 2018 You should be able to buy the individual mounts made by Barry Controls. Clarence
