Scott Tailwheel bushing

Post by jlwild »

Ok folks, where can I purchase the bushing (Fig. 94-3) that is used to connect the Scott tailwheel bracket to the tailwheel spring :?: Mine is worn and needs to be replaced.

In the IPC (Fig. 94-3) it is clearly shown and has a part no. of 0442011-2. I have tried Aircraft Spruce and other parts catalogs, but no luck. Before calling Cessna Parts, thought I would ask the forum experts if they have have any better suggestions 8)

http://cessnaparts.com/parts.cfm says part in stock for $10.19 ea

http://www.parts123.com/cessna-parts/default.htm also says part in stock and $10.19 ea

I've used them both and never had a problem. Unfortunately they both have a minimum order of $25. Maybe the local Cessna dealer could order it without a minimum and not too much more expensive.

Thanks Walt and Bob,

I knew someone would point me in the right direction. I will give both Air Repair and Cessna Parts a call. Then take the lowest price. 8)

Alaska Bushwheel also sells them. I think the last time I ordered one from them they were only $5 or $6.

Hi Jim, Cessna wants $10.16 let your cessna dealer know your a TIC Member and ask for a discount and it may be less. I always start my search with cessna that way I know availability and price. Once I know what cessna wants for a part I make sure other sources aren't gouging me.

To All,

Air Repair took my order and let me have the TIC 170 discount. It turns out the cost of mailing is more expensive the the $10.00 part.

Thanks again for all the input.
