Rudder help
We have a C-170 that had rudder damage in a wind storm. The small rudder horn bottom, (stamped metal), is pretty mangled and needs replacement. Does anyone know where one of these can be procured?? 480-650-0883

Relevant post on rudder horns.
Might want to consider adding the L-19 rudder stops mentioned in that thread as they do a better job.
Also has good info on how to secure the rudder from wind without causing damage (ie- dont brace it at the top)
