Nose wheel assembly

[Joe Afonso]

Hi All, going thru annual on my 1962 M20C revealed loose bushings on nose wheel assembly, I have removed it and am looking for a source that can rebuild it, anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance

Lasar is the go to.

+1 for LASAR

+2 for LASAR.  They also have PMAed oversized bushings.

A SB says to check the torque on the big steering bolt every 100 hrs, Seems to reduce wear on the big bushing.

Contact LASAR Parts --they do this all the time.

Bushing and reamer from Lasar - IIRC less than .5 amu all in

Once the bushings are replaced, what’s the torque spec on the bolts? Only the steering bolt has a spec, as far as I can see....?

Nose wheel or nose gear?  Loose wheel bearings or worn bushings in the landing gear?

LASAR has oversized bushings for all the pivot points on the Mooney landing gear, not just the big steering bushing.  And they are PMA'ed.

Everyone here should thank Paul Loewen for the legacy he has left us.

That's what Joey Cole had installed on mine.
