Electric gear conversion kit - SOLD

[Culver LFA]

Here are all of the electric gear components removed from my M20F when converted back to j-bar, it’s probably been a few years since such a kit has been available and who knows if it ever will be available again!

$2500.00

Wow, Dukes Astronautics Company! Makes me even happier to have that 0.20 hp motor under my floorboards.

Save it.   You might want to put it back in later.

53 years after conversion to electric, converted back to manual. 

Maybe the airplane will be converted back to electric in 2073, but it won't be by me!  Everything must go, cleaning out the hangar sale!

Would it work on the E model or only the F?

According to the parts manual theses components are not model specific, I'd expect no surprises installing in an 'E'

[Piotrekpdx]

Are there other non electrical parts needed  to complete the conversion?

Do you have a ballpark estimate for how many hours it would take to complete the conversion?

Sorry for all the questions, just interested in how much the whole process would cost if I were to move forward with it. 
 

Thank you!

Only hardware not included are pushrods, your pushrods will need to be shortened(main)/lengthened(nose) or replaced because the manual gear bellcrank mounts further forward than the electric gear bellcrank does.

Probably 30 hrs, the tough part is where do you stop with the extras once you get started.  I stripped/primed/painted all control and gear linkages.  Super-cleaned and lubed all the rod ends. Removed old wiring that was from avionics shops long ago...

I’d be happy to provide a detailed step by step to complete the conversion.

Is there a installation manual available?

If the electrics fail is there a backup wheels down option?

Hi @banjo - I can't help with the manual question, but this is the manual/emergency extension crank.  It mounts on the sidewall, to the left of the pilot's knee.
