On ebay <http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-undrilled-Grumman-Tiger-Cheetah-laminated-fiberglass-landing-gear-leg-1-X-26-/261255232240?hash=item3cd4067af0&vxp=mtr> These are from Fletch Air in Comfort, TX. I've dealt with these guys before and found them to be decent people. I bought the O-320 for my SuperCub there. They gave me two used Grumman Cheetah exhausts that I was able to modify to use as the exhaust on my SuperCub. Very reasonably priced and good people to deal with. It appears that these are old inventory that is in need of recertification to sell for use on a certificated aircraft. But it should be some pretty good stuff for use on a KR. And the price is right. I was looking at one of the KRs at the gathering that had the cut down Grumman gear legs on it and was somewhat surprised at the stiffness of the gear as compared to my 30" Diehl legs. I think I would be tempted to plain it down a bit more. ------ The Ebay Ad: US $19.50 - New undrilled Grumman Tiger, Cheetah, or Traveler laminated fiberglass landing gear leg 1?
