Brakes

Post by 1911Tex »

I am having a heck of a time trying to get the nose wheel to swivel...the nose wheel is properly adjusted. Flushed the brake fluid, reversed new fluid from bleeder up. Good firm pedal. The original discs are grooved, the pucks may be glazed, etc. I need discs, pucks. Does anyone know the source of the original brake parts; Cleveland, etc.? Thanks!

Above Clarification: The nose wheel swivels as it is supposed to. Trying to find out the source for brake disc/lining. The DA20 parts manual states the brake parts are sourced from Parker Hannifin; however, the part numbers do not coincide with the Diamond part numbers. Your kind assistance is appreciated.

FYI: Parker Hannifin produces Cleveland brakes, if that's of any help.

Your brakes should be pretty standard Cleveland 30-9D brakes. Go to Aircraft Spruce for a "brake"down here - http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/l ... kkey=14211

The linings should be 066-10600

Diamond owners have to stick together. We don't get much respect from the manufacturer :thumbsd:
