About this part

This is the light-duty version of The Landing Gear Works titanium main gear, made for the Cessna 180. Like the heavy-duty set, it won't fatigue, rust or lose its spring the way steel legs do over the years.

Each leg weighs about 21 lb, against about 34 lb for Cessna's light-duty steel leg. That's up to 13 lb saved per side, low on the airframe where it counts.

The legs arrive as bare titanium and need no paint. If you'd like them to match the airplane, they can be painted, polished or powder coated.

What's included

  • Left and right titanium gear legs
  • BK 20 titanium axle attach bolt kit (required)
  • FAA STC SA01087SE paperwork
  • Gear-box modification template
  • Installation instructions

Good to know

  • Light-duty outboard brackets are XP0713495-61T / -62T (titanium) or -61 / -62 (steel).
  • Use titanium brake line clip XP0741001-205 (.810"), two per leg.
