Spanner turners old and new, can you help me identify these oleos please?
They are fitted to my Falco but are not the usual fitments. I do have spares but in anticipation of the day arriving when I need to re-build these I'd really like to know what they were originally fitted to and whether I can get spares for them.

I see a name plate.
Part Number would be helpful. ;)

The 2nd picture shows the data plate and serial number. I don't have anything other than that. My search on google leads me to believe that the manufacturer hasn't been around since just after WWII !

Sorry, i did not klick on the second link.

We are talking about the F.8L Falco, right?
You can find Kits here: Sequoia Aircraft Corporation (http://www.seqair.com)
According the Falco Construction Drawing [http://www.seqair.com/Store/Plans/Plans.html] you can also search your parts.

Thanks but my Falco doesn't use the standard oleos, hence the quest.
