Samir13k Posted June 1 Report Posted June 1 Hello, My M20G has found itself in need of a new set of wheels during its annual. The A&P found corrosion on the wheels and said they all needed to be replaced. As such, I’m looking for a 40-87 nose wheel (cannot find used options anywhere online) and 2x of the 40-86 main gear wheels. If anyone has a lead on some, it would be greatly appreciated. Looking to purchase together or separately. (I did see 40-86 options on eBay). My A&P called Cleveland and clarified that it does need to be 40-87, Variants such as 40-87C are not compatible based on his conversation. Thank you in advance! Quote
MB65E Posted June 1 Report Posted June 1 I think the BE-55 Barron nose wheel is the same. I bought a spare from a lady that had a Barron -Matt 1 Quote

MB65E Posted June 3 Report Posted June 3 Stockmarket.aero Some of their stuff is a paid script. I work with company Torque Aero that can source most parts through their paid services. Internet can only take you so far sometimes. Listings will give you inventories of who has what. This level of Stock market aero leaves a lot to be researched still. Between Google, Stockmarket, and Torque I can find most parts. I’ve been using the -87A wheel off a Barron for the last 10y. My factory magnesium wheels were shot. -Matt 4 Quote

All the time. However, I don’t use the RFQ function. I make sure the have at least one in inventory then call them directly. Most are real companies that want to sell parts. I’ve bought parts for various airplanes from the Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand. England, Canada. -Matt Quote
