    Not sure if this is the correct forum to post in. However, need prop and left side forward and aft wing struts for Taylorcraft BC12D. Student put me in a ditch. Appreciate any help.

      Pegi,

      Try Univair Aircraft for the struts. www.univair.com

      Wag-Aero gave me a good price on wooden prop

      Old struts may be repairable. I may be interested in them. [email protected] 845-473-0713

        I purchased a strut from Univair two years ago and I am happy with it. It is a sealed strut and fits well. It is a little larger (wider than the old struts) but the length and how it attaches is the same as the old strut. We needed to make a new clamp for the Jury strut. I paid $600 for the Univair strut at that time. Don't know if they have gone up in price.

          I have an extra strut that came with some parts I bought. It appears to be good. No rust on outside and does not raddle from rust on inside.. I think the struts are interchangable from side to side. Email me if interested. I am in the field planting corn so may not get right back to you. I also have a complete right wing that needs a rear spare. It would be easy to repair if someone needs a wing. George

                He was very happy to discover that the gear I had was a left one. Struts would probably be a good first part for the factory to consider manufacturing.

                Maybe we could make a list of frequently bent parts (in order of priority) and present it to the factory; there may be other factors, but making parts may be profitable. - Mike
