I have read a bunch of threads on nose gear actuators on early model 112's. I have a 1975 112A serial #247 that has a different problem than most (from what I hear)

I have a good piston, but need the cylinder housing to be operational. It seems possibly some water got into the cylinder and corroded the cylinder wall, causing it to tear o-rings after rebuild.

I have been in touch with Gar Kenyan, but the cylinder they manufacture replaces the later model Commanders ser #381 and up. I have also contact Power Packs in Nevada who was unable to help at this time.

Does anyone know of any place I could possibly look. Are there any downed Commanders in scrap yards????

Any assistance would be helpful as I am grounded at this time.

Thanks
